00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:14.560
Yeah, news need advice, so
you don't have in Just sus fast as

2
00:00:14.640 --> 00:00:21.679
we can show. Shooter's gonna help. Come man, this is the Troubleshooter

3
00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:27.120
Show now, Tom Martinez, Welcome, my friends. Welcome to the only

4
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:31.000
show of It's kind of here to
solve problems, answer questions, take your

5
00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:34.119
complaints. In fact, it's card
day here. It's a Troubleshooter show.

6
00:00:34.119 --> 00:00:38.960
I got Kevin Colkin in studio with
me and we're gonna dive into any issues

7
00:00:39.039 --> 00:00:43.840
you have with cars. But don't
forget this show is about getting well,

8
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:47.439
kind of getting revenge. Is that
a way to put it? I mean,

9
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:50.560
I kind of like saying that harsh. Well, I'll tell you what.

10
00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:54.320
You have a contractor show up and
promise to do something, and you

11
00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:58.079
put money down, which you never
should do, and they decide not to

12
00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:00.840
show up or do a horrible job. You can get your pound of flesh

13
00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:04.120
here. We'll try to fight for
you. We'll go after that bad.

14
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:10.200
Justice is good, but I still
like pound of flesh a little bit.

15
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:12.879
There is sometimes when the guy ripped
you off, and let's say he's a

16
00:01:12.920 --> 00:01:18.359
drug addict or the girl. It
doesn't matter whoever rips you off. They

17
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:22.000
have nothing. They blew your money. There's nothing to get out of them,

18
00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:26.439
but to expose him. Piece of
crap they are. I'll put him

19
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:29.000
in jail. Yeah, that's nice
if you could put him in jail,

20
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:32.000
too bad, You know what I
do believe. Do you guys think Denver's

21
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:36.680
getting better? I'm talking on against
criminals right now. I know we're Aurora,

22
00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:40.400
and I believe Denver changed some of
the laws on car theft's. For

23
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:44.319
a while there, you could steal
pretty much any car and it would be

24
00:01:44.359 --> 00:01:48.519
a zero bond. No. I
think they finally realized they went too far

25
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:51.519
one direction. They're starting to come
back towards the middle. Yes, they

26
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:56.280
came back. I think they're coming
back. I still don't know. I

27
00:01:56.319 --> 00:01:57.560
mean, I honestly, guy,
don't know. Kell. I think they're

28
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:02.200
watching others like Oregon and what they're
going through, and I know we try

29
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:06.200
to copycat all these people and it
ends up in a horrible deal. I

30
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:12.840
do want to say this though,
this show three hundred million dollars cash merchandise

31
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:17.360
exchanges refunds services directly due to this
show. So if you do have a

32
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:21.879
problem with someone out there and it
doesn't matter, it doesn't matter where you

33
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:25.879
are. Our podcast is one of

but you can leave a message and
we'll reach back out to you to try

42
00:02:55.159 --> 00:03:00.439
to help bad landlords, bad doctors, bad attorneys. That's something we're getting

43
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:02.960
more and more calls on. By
the way, people not happy with their

44
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:07.879
attorneys. I bet you ninety percent
of it is the same thing with doctors.

45
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:12.319
It's lack of communication. How were
you at communicating? That's Deputy Doc.

46
00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:15.039
By the way, let me for
new people out there. We have

47
00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:20.039
deputies at Volunteer Force and then we
have lists of experts at referral lists dot

48
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:23.439
com. Deputy Doc has been with
us for years and years. When we

49
00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:25.879
have a problem, we'll assign one
of the deputies to it and they reach

50
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:30.919
out. But prior to volunteering for
US, and you also volunteer for AARP.

51
00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:35.719
Yeah, and for AARP you do
fraud fighting. Absolutely, say have

52
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:40.479
a nationwide thing called AARP fraud Helpline. Yeah, that's nice. My dad

53
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:44.680
did that way back in the day. Now, Deputy Doctough, when you

54
00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:47.240
were a doctor, I want to
ask you this. You brought up communication

55
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:53.759
with attorneys and doctors. How were
you didn't most of your staff? Really?

56
00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:57.599
If I go back to when Suzanne
had both of our children, or

57
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:00.000
we had both of our children,
she would we would both go to the

58
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:05.080
appointments. I'm not talking about that, but the communication with the doctor and

59
00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:10.719
Suzanne tell me if I'm wrong on
there. The communication with Varma that was

60
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:15.439
one of the doctors, for example, was pretty much only when you were

61
00:04:15.519 --> 00:04:19.360
in front of the doctor. All
the other communications was with the office.

62
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:21.839
Suzanne. Would you say, that's
right? What's up about? Well,

63
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:26.879
Varma was a lot more personalized than
that. I could talk to her directly

64
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:29.079
all the time back in the day, But I don't know if that's how

65
00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:31.839
she does it now. Hold on, doc, my current primary physician.

66
00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:35.720
For example, the only time I
ever talked to him is when I'm in

67
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:40.199
the office once a year for my
physical. So go ahead, where are

68
00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:42.279
you going to say? Well,
I think I was a little bit unique.

69
00:04:42.360 --> 00:04:46.800
We had no phone tree. When
you called my office. Like with

70
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:50.600
John Fuller, you got to speak
to the reception of the nurse right away,

71
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:55.560
yep, and actually coping. Yeah. But with John Fuller, a

72
00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:58.800
lot of times you're talking to the
attorney right away, right. God,

73
00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:00.399
if it was a medical problem,
the receptions to put it right through to

74
00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:03.680
me. I mean, if it
was an appointment, obviously I didn't need

75
00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:06.639
to be involved in that, yeah, or any kind of issue, they

76
00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:10.680
would go right to me. So
but you think a lot of doctors and

77
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:15.079
attorneys lack communication. I'll tell you
Kopik, who is the main insurance company

78
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:19.519
gives us SeeMe credits. We have
to go to lectures on how to communicate

79
00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:25.800
with patients. That's pretty interesting and
how And the big thing is if there

80
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:29.560
is an issue, if there's a
problem, if there's a mistake, how

81
00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:31.439
to tell the patient, how to
deal with the patient. You don't hide

82
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:34.720
it, you don't run away,
you talk about it. Yeah, And

83
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:38.920
that solves a lot of issues.
Mark Well, I appreciate that. Doc.

84
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:41.480
Listen, this hour, by the
way, brought to you really quick

85
00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:44.560
Ideal Home Loans. I love these
guys. I'm going to tell you something

86
00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:47.160
about them. Even though interest rates, hopefully they're going to start coming down.

87
00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:50.600
But if you have to sell right
now, or you have to buy

88
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:55.160
a house, maybe you're getting transferred, having another kid, maybe you need

89
00:05:55.160 --> 00:05:59.480
to downsize to put some cash in. It doesn't matter if you refi with

90
00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:02.920
them right now to get cash out
or if you're moving if interest rates drop,

91
00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:08.040
Listen, I don't know any other
company that does this. Brent Ivensting

92
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:12.000
is a genius and he's looking out
for you. If rates drop in the

93
00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:15.360
next two years, they will refi
you for free. In other words,

94
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:19.480
if they refi you at six seven
percent right now and rates are down to

95
00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:24.120
two or three percent in a year
or two, they're going to refy you

96
00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:29.199
for free, so there is no
risk if rates do come down. I

97
00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:30.759
want to give there Actually, I'm
just going to give you this out.

98
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:35.480
Go to Ideal home loans dot com. It's simple as that Ideal Home loans

99

job. I love Brent. He's a

100
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:43.360
great owner. Now let's jump right
to the phone lines. I'm going to

101
00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:46.439
go to a Toyota issue. It
is car day, and it's an issue.

102
00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:49.920
Is it with the car? Sky? I love that name, by

103
00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:55.120
the way, Sky? Is it
with the dealership or Toyota the manufacturer?

104
00:06:55.160 --> 00:07:00.879
What's the issue? Sky? I
see there? Up? Am I hitting

105
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:05.079
the wrong button? That is a
possibility? Hey, Sky, are you

106
00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:09.639
there? I'm here now? Oh
hey, go ahead, Sky? What's

107
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:13.360
going on? I was thinking in
the back of my mind, male or

108
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:15.519
female? I want to tell you
where I went because everybody out there and

109
00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:18.160
I said, Sky must have thought
that is that? What do you think,

110
00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:21.199
Kevin Reagon? I thought it was
a woman. I thought it was

111
00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:25.839
a woman too. Go ahead,
Sky, what's going on? So it's

112
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:30.439
yeah, it's an issue with the
car. It's a twenty eighteen cameras Okay?

113
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:35.439
Did you buy it new slightly used? Okay? And when did you

114
00:07:35.519 --> 00:07:42.959
buy it? Uh? Three years
ago? And who'd you buy it from?

115
00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:46.000
I bought it from Epic Park Okay. So what's going on with it

116
00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:53.879
right now? So the issue is
actually with the group, Toyota's service department.

117
00:07:54.040 --> 00:08:00.560
So what happened last Christmas. Christmas
of twenty twenty two, just over

118
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.040
a year ago, started getting some
noise in the front end. So I

119
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:07.040
took it in. Figured it was
the swave bars, because you know I've

120
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:11.800
I've done there before. It turned
out to be the slave bars, and

121
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:13.199
so I was like, all right, well, let's get a fixed.

122
00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:16.879
I got a warranty. Was it
just a little loosey goosey in the turning?

123
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:22.839
Yeah, it wasn't really even didn't
even feel loose. Its just some

124
00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:26.480
clicking noise, you know. Okay, Kevin has had a big deal on

125
00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:28.439
a camera. No, he's talking
about the swave bar links. Yeah,

126
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:33.679
just then itself. Yeah, okay, keep going man, Yeah, yeah,

127
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:37.600
basically the links. But I guess
they're the studs that they wear out

128
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:43.600
and click anyway, So I had
him replace it through my warranty, and

129
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:48.519
you know, I like them parts, so I requested the parts. You

130
00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:50.679
have to pay a little extra even
through the warrants. Understood, keep going.

131
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:54.320
So this wasn't a manufacturer's warranty,
by the way, Sky, this

132
00:08:54.480 --> 00:09:00.279
was a secondary Okay, So what
happened? They replaced it. Everything seem

133
00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:03.720
good now, what Yeah, everything's
good. Jobs for over a years in

134
00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:09.120
last week, noise came back.
I took it to Mountain States this time,

135
00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:13.399
and anyway found out that the sleep
bars they put in there were uh

136
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:18.159
aftermarket, which I requested. All
right, so Sky, hold on,

137
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:20.279
hold on. I think I see
where you're going. So basically the issue

138
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:26.120
is this, You paid extra,
requested the OEM parts on the invoice.

139
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:31.639
Does it show OEM unfortunately they didn't
put that in. Does it have a

140
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:35.360
part number? It does have a
part number. Does a part number go

141
00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:39.039
back to an OEM Toyota part No? The part number they put in there

142
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:43.840
in the part number that's in the
invalid is the aftermarket? Are they willing

143
00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:46.840
to do anything now when you talk
to them? No? All right,

144
00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:50.240
hold on, hold on, hold
on, Sky, I gotta take this

145
00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:54.440
break. That's pretty interesting. The
problem is there's no proof here. I

146
00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:56.120
wonder if they admit to it.
Then I'm gonna ask Kevin. I want

147
00:09:56.120 --> 00:10:00.480
you to think about this during the
break, Kevin, does it really matter

148
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:03.799
one of the parts. When I
think of a swaybar, or a swaybar

149
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:09.120
links or a lot of undercar parts, I think of Moog, and I

150
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:13.919
would argue Moog is as good,

our neighbor's trying to sell their house. I hope she's listening right now.

162
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:16.000
I really like her a lot.
She's struggling. I don't know who

163
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:20.440
she's using as a realtor, but
I'm staring at the sign in our cul

164
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:22.600
de sac every day. I can
tell you this how long's that house been

165
00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:26.480
up for sales. SU's at a
mark twice. Yeah, it's been up

166
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:31.399
and down over six months, two
times down for I think December. That

167
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:35.559
realtor is not doing their job,
simple as that Frank Duran would have had

168
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:37.559
that sold. And I bet he
can sell it for more money than this

169
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:41.720
realtor. And I'm going to sit
down and have a talk with her because

170
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:45.919
I'm starting to feel bad for I
understand where she's at. They need to

171
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:48.480
sell the house and it's killing them. But that's why I love Frank Duran.

172
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:54.480
He sells more homes. Listen to
this guys. More homes in one

173
00:11:54.600 --> 00:12:00.600
month than most realtors sell in eighteen
months. It's an incredible Amount's other people

174
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:03.240
out there that say they sell more. But you know what, you'll even

175
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:07.720
hear the advertisings on this show.
They're recorded advertisings. I don't do them,

176
00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:09.200
Tom doesn't do them. But they're
lying. I don't know how else

177
00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:13.480
to put it. MLS doesn't lie. Numbers are numbers. Frank durand the

This is a curious one. Kevin,

180
00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:26.960
I want to bring you into this
conversation. I'm going to bring Sky back

181
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:31.960
up. He went to Groove Toyota
almost over a year ago, correct,

182
00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:37.639
Skuy. So he goes there and
he gets swaybar links done, and just

183
00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:41.960
really quick, very novice, what
explain what they do? What do the

184
00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:46.279
links do? There's a swaybar keeps
your car from feeling like you're gonna roll

185
00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:50.639
on. Yeah, and the swaybar
is held down to the frame by two

186
00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:54.559
bolts basically, then the swat and
that's all they are. They're really exactly

187
00:12:54.600 --> 00:12:58.720
what you said. Some of the
all have tie rod in looking parts on

188
00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:01.519
him, and some have just bowled. Now he is upset because a year

189
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:05.320
later and Sky I'd be upset too. How long should new sway bar links

190
00:13:05.399 --> 00:13:09.799
last? Typically if they were installed
properly and there wasn't an accident or a

191
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:13.320
problem with the swell four or five
years, I mean fifty sixty seventy.

192
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:16.679
It depends on the driving and everything, but they certainly not a year.

193
00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:20.799
Yeah. So now, now,
Sky, you wanted OEM and you talked

194
00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:24.919
to the service manager when you were
there or the advisor, and apparently they

195
00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:28.919
verbally told you no problem. They
were going to do that. Plus it's

196
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:31.320
a Toyota dealer. I said he
paid extra for the OEO. Yeah,

197
00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:35.240
but on his receipt it doesn't say
that. But did the warranty cover the

198
00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:37.200
entire repair? Did he have a
portion of the repair to pay for?

199
00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:41.320
What is that? Sky? Did
the warranty pay for the whole thing?

200
00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:46.559
No? So I had a portion
to pay for the extra earlien. And

201
00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:52.519
also the main issue as well is
they weren't all They weren't just after market.

202
00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:56.799
They were the wrong design. Well, I don't know what that means.

203
00:13:56.919 --> 00:13:58.000
I mean, what what the hell
does that mean? And how did

204
00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:01.080
they work for a year if they're
the wrong design? And now have a

205
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:07.960
problem. Okay, So with slaves, the studs or the bolts, either

206
00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:13.799
they either face the same direction or
the opposite direction. Requires the ones that

207
00:14:15.080 --> 00:14:18.360
face the opposite direction, the ones
they put on there are the wrong design,

208
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:20.399
face the same direction. Kevin,
is that making sense to you?

209
00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:26.279
What he's what he's saying is basically, you'll have them offset or both pointing

210
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:30.720
in the same direction. You can
twist it around. And so would that

211
00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:35.080
be an installation problem? Yeah?
Whoever put it on knew better than to

212
00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:37.879
put those on, but you can
make them work. They just it's not

213
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:39.600
the right design. So they probably
were the wrong part, the wrong part,

214
00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:43.600
and they'd wear out sooner because they're
under stressed. When you talk to

215
00:14:43.720 --> 00:14:46.000
Groove, now, let let's say
you're right. Do they even acknowledge they

216
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:52.200
put on the right the wrong part. No, that's the most egilient.

217
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:58.720
No acknowledgment, no apology, and
no refund. If you look up,

218
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:03.679
the part number is the correct part. You know what I'm saying. Oh,

219
00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:07.039
so the part number is wrong,
the parts wrong, everything's wrong.

220
00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:11.519
Everything's wrong. And I've got everything's
documented. Mountain States Toyota that it's the

221
00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:16.720
problem. Uh, they've got an
all documented. They've given me the right

222
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:18.440
part. It sticks now, so
I've got the right part. I've got

223
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:22.600
the right part number that they put
on, and I've compared it to their

224
00:15:22.639 --> 00:15:26.159
part number and it's it's different.
So yeah, it's all documentary. All

225
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:28.399
right, let's do this. I
would like first let's try to reach over

226
00:15:28.440 --> 00:15:33.600
to Groove. I'm gonna have Suzanne
reach out to their service department and see

227
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:37.720
if we can actually get through to
them and get a comment on this.

228
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:39.919
You got to give her your last
name, whatever, the work order number.

229
00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:43.759
In fact, you have the invoice. Actually, i'd like to see

230
00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:46.039
that invoice as well. Do you
have a picture of it you could send

231
00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:50.039
us. I would like Kevin to
look up the part number. You said

232
00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:52.720
the part numbers on there? Well, he said he went to Mountain States

233
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:56.320
and they're the ones that told him
and showed it. Correct it the other

234
00:15:56.360 --> 00:15:58.000
TODA did. But let's do this
guy. Hold on, I want to

235
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:03.360
see the original invoice that has a
part number. I want to make sure

236
00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:06.759
that's the wrong part number. And
if it is, there is no reason

237
00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:10.480
we're not going to be able to
get groove to get this handled or at

238
00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:14.919
least Reinburshie. I can't imagine.
Why would they Did you piss them off

239
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:21.080
or something? No? I mean
I didn't. Every day, as respectful,

240
00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:25.159
I sent them emails that were respectful
to saying hey, please contact all

241
00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:26.559
right, I want to when can
you send us that invoice? That's the

242
00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:30.360
first thing I want to see.
Then I want Kevin to look up that

243
00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:33.360
part number. Okay, I can
send us you right now, all right,

244
00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:36.960
hold on, Susanna will give you
the information, send it to us.

245
00:16:37.000 --> 00:16:38.240
Hold on, now, the other
thing I want to do, Kevin.

246
00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:41.519
When it comes to after market parts, Listen, I said before the

247
00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:48.080
break, there's after market parts that
cost just as much as OEM. Sure.

248
00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:52.039
In fact, some of the OEM
parts I'm not sure what brands might

249
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.000
be made by Moog for example.
No, there is that. There's reboxes

250
00:16:56.039 --> 00:16:59.960
and everything else they call them.
And some of the after marks actually improved

251
00:17:00.360 --> 00:17:03.519
the dealer parts. So oh yeah, because they're just designed after If they

252
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:07.759
find a defect or something that'll make
it last longer, they redesign them.

253
00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:11.240
Here's what a lot of people don't
realize. Back when I was an automotive,

254
00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:14.440
we had an eighty nine dollars break
job. It was basically turned the

255
00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:18.319
rotors in pads. They were NAPA
brand cheap pads. So and I'm going

256
00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:23.119
back years, but back then I
bought a lot from NAPA. NAPA had

257
00:17:23.160 --> 00:17:29.240
their cheapy cheapy organic they called them. Then they had a semi metallic,

258
00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:33.599
then they had a ceramic, and
then inside of those three kinds they had

259
00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:38.759
different levels of quality. So one
car might have how many different options for

260
00:17:38.880 --> 00:17:44.839
pads? A ten? Yeah,
ten or twelve all through just NAPA line

261
00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:48.680
and maybe some other lines as well. But the reality is back then again,

262
00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:53.599
some of those pads were nine dollars
nine bucks for the cheap organic all

263
00:17:53.640 --> 00:17:59.119
the way up to maybe the ceramics
back then were forty forty five bucks.

264
00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:03.359
So when we talk after market parts
doesn't mean if it could be front end,

265
00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:06.480
it could be an alternator, could
be anything. There's a level of

266
00:18:06.559 --> 00:18:11.079
quality that's crazy difference it is.
So when you're not using OEM, you

267
00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:12.960
got to make sure you at least
use a good one. Sure, So

268
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:15.240
how do you guys do it?
At Sheridan? What do you like?

269
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:19.799
Would you use NAPA? We use
Nappa primarily because of the warranty three year

270
00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:26.359
nationwide. And that's no questions.
I mean, it's just you have an

271
00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:27.720
issue, they deal with it.
When you do a brake job, Now

272
00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:33.880
do you use Napa's most expensive to
put it? You know what depends a

273
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:36.519
lot of the vehicle. Some of
the bigger trucks and stuff. We do

274
00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:38.680
higher end brakes because they just they
just tear them up. They just go

275
00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:41.880
through it. Yeah, and then
some there's not a lot of options.

276
00:18:41.160 --> 00:18:45.359
There's all the application it goes by
car. Yeah, all right, very

277
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:48.200
cool man. All right, we're
gonna look at and we're also going to

00:20:17.119 --> 00:20:21.359
Tide they also have now. In
fact, doctor Joel just told me they

299
00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:26.559
are offering a ure zippetide as well. These are those weight loss drugs that

300
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:30.200
are remarkable. They're changing people's lives. But the semi glue Tide, I

301
00:20:30.279 --> 00:20:34.160
know this for two hundred and fifty
bucks a month. That includes the visit

302
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:38.440
to them, that includes the medication, that includes whatever. And it doesn't

303
00:20:38.440 --> 00:20:41.279
matter where in Colorado you are.
You can call them up, they can

304
00:20:41.319 --> 00:20:44.759
ship it to you, they can
do a zoom to show you how to

305
00:20:44.839 --> 00:20:48.319
use it, and do the initial
doctor's appointment to get it. It's crazy,

306
00:20:48.599 --> 00:20:55.640
but Denverregion dot com they're changing the
way this is going. Other facilities,

307
00:20:55.680 --> 00:21:00.559
other clinics, other doctor's offices.
Two thousand dollars plus a month.

308
00:21:00.599 --> 00:21:03.920
These guys two hundred and fifty dollars. I don't know how they do it.

309
00:21:03.039 --> 00:21:08.920
Denverregion dot com, Denver Region dot
Com. Now this baggage thing.

310
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:15.599
So we're working on this right now, kind of behind the scenes. Doc's

311
00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:18.240
gonna get involved. But we do
have one line open on on everybody.

312
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:22.039
You know that three oh three seven
one three A two five five been ripped

313
00:21:22.039 --> 00:21:25.160
off. Rosie, We're gonna get
you after the break because we're coming up

314
00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:26.759
on it. And same with you, Bill. I promise I'll get you

315
00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:32.480
in order. Then Michael has an
issue with a transmission. But I want

316
00:21:32.480 --> 00:21:34.839
to go back to Kevin on the
call we got about the Toyota. Did

317
00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:38.759
we get the invoice from Groove And
here's what I'm talking about. Grooves soldom

318
00:21:40.200 --> 00:21:45.400
swaybar links or not sway bar Yes, swaybar links. And another dealership says

319
00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:48.920
they install them wrong and they want
to believe install them they're wrong, part

320
00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:52.519
wrong parts. Did you look at
the invoice? Yes? Does the Groove

321
00:21:52.759 --> 00:21:56.960
invoice have a part number? It
has a NAPA part number. Does that

322
00:21:56.119 --> 00:22:02.240
NAPA part number coincide with the vehicle
they installed it on. No, it

323
00:22:02.319 --> 00:22:06.480
doesn't they literally the wrong part.
Yeah, it goes to Alexis. It

324
00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:10.039
doesn't. It does not pull out
for a different part. How in the

325
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:15.039
hell can these guys not realize that
and then either fix it or refund them.

326
00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:19.039
No, the refund is automatic.
This is crazy. This is absolutely

327
00:22:19.119 --> 00:22:22.880
nuts. And you're sure you did
the Yeah, and we have got to

328
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:26.759
try to get them on during break. When the break comes up, let's

329
00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:33.160
call Groove up and figure out how
they can possibly justify it. If they

330
00:22:33.160 --> 00:22:36.240
don't want to come on the air, I can understand that. So what

331
00:22:36.359 --> 00:22:40.400
I'll do is I'll call after the
show and try to make it very clear

332
00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:44.599
that they suck if they literally have
no excuse for this. No, they

333
00:22:44.599 --> 00:22:47.400
made a mistake, just stand up
texture. But why wouldn't they That's the

334
00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:51.799
part I don't understand. We don't
even hear complaints on Groove. Why would

335
00:22:51.799 --> 00:22:55.720
they be so stupid on this?
See? This is where I wonder.

336
00:22:56.440 --> 00:23:00.359
I do wonder because I dove into
one of these with l Way years and

337
00:23:00.480 --> 00:23:04.480
years ago, and the guy walked
in there and started threatening them with a

338
00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:10.200
knife. Yeah, well, okay, the dealership did screw up. He

339
00:23:10.240 --> 00:23:12.839
didn't go in there waving a knife
around. He went in there saying stuff

340
00:23:12.920 --> 00:23:15.480
like if you don't do it,
I'm gonna come back here and stab you.

341
00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:19.440
I mean, it was crazy,
but he of course left that part

342
00:23:19.480 --> 00:23:23.920
out when he called into the show. Consumers leave a lot out. I'd

343
00:23:23.960 --> 00:23:29.359
like to get that consumer back up
at the beginning, and we'll start out

344
00:23:29.440 --> 00:23:33.359
with Rosie and Bill, but then
we'll go to him and meantime Suzanne will

345
00:23:33.359 --> 00:23:36.680
try to get them on. I
want everybody to think about something. Over

346
00:23:36.720 --> 00:23:40.759
the break, Suzanne made a comment
to me. Every single day where I

347
00:23:40.920 --> 00:23:45.319
park at this building, you got
to understand this building is strange. Out

348
00:23:45.319 --> 00:23:52.400
front, we have a circular driveway. It's one big circle with parking spaces.

349
00:23:52.640 --> 00:23:56.680
It's like a pie. Half of
it is handicapped basically, or a

350
00:23:56.680 --> 00:24:00.279
good quarter of it, and then
there's a bunch in a row. So

351
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:06.759
each space is more of a triangle
than it is a regular parking space.

352
00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:11.880
So I always back in. I
always back in. You're an expert backer

353
00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:15.039
inner, she says, anybody that
backs in. Basically, how do you

354
00:24:15.079 --> 00:24:18.160
put it? I just want to
be a show off, show off?

355
00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:22.400
Okay, So in general, forget
about the round parking lot. I do

356
00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:26.519
back in a lot. Is there
any problem with people that back in?

357
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:27.960
No, I do because I have
a beeper on the back. Show you

358
00:24:29.000 --> 00:24:32.920
back in? Yeah, doctor,
you back in? No, I pull

359
00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:37.240
into the handicapped spot. Oh that's
right, I forgot about that anyhow.

360
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:53.279
I just she thinks people that backs
in ripped you don't have just as fast

361
00:24:53.319 --> 00:25:00.960
as we can. So is gonna
help? Come? Is the Troubleshooter Show?

362
00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:06.559

00:25:32.920 --> 00:25:36.960
them happens to be sitting next to
me because it's car day. Share it

371
00:25:37.000 --> 00:25:40.519
in auto Tech, Uncle, Kevin. I'm glad you're here with me.

372
00:25:40.759 --> 00:25:45.359
I'm it's fun. We also do
something on the weekends. We share something,

373
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:48.279
we don't do it together. God, this all sounds kind of weird

374
00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:55.000
that you start out there talking about
barbecue. We love barbecue. Yeah,

375
00:25:55.279 --> 00:26:00.960
I love smoking. I love smoking
brisket, ribs, anything. It's just

376
00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:03.400
one of my favorite things to do. All right, folks, Listen,

377
00:26:03.519 --> 00:26:06.400
lines are full right now. I'm
going to go to one quick one.

378
00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:07.680
Then we're going to go to Rosie
and Bill. But we've got a lot

379
00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:12.880
cooking in the hopper. I left
a message for the service manager at Groove

380
00:26:14.200 --> 00:26:18.880
Toyota, and I gave him the
ro number, the receipt from our caller

381
00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:22.000
last hour. They sold him everything
we can see, correct, Kevin.

382
00:26:22.240 --> 00:26:26.799
They put the wrong part number on
the swaybar links, and he has it

383
00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:30.920
at a different Toyota dealership right now, and they're telling him the same thing.

384
00:26:32.319 --> 00:26:34.759
They're saying, Hey, you need
swaybar links, and here's why,

385
00:26:34.920 --> 00:26:40.039
whoever did these last ones put the
wrong part number on the wrong part.

386
00:26:40.240 --> 00:26:44.160
So I just left a message for
the service manager. Hopefully I hear back

387
00:26:44.200 --> 00:26:47.319
from him. We don't get a
lot of complaints on Groove. I will

388
00:26:47.359 --> 00:26:51.799
be shocked if they don't do anything
unless if there is something else going on,

389
00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:56.680
we don't know, all right,
So meantime, I'm going to take

390
00:26:56.799 --> 00:27:00.279
Mike, because Mike you called in. I was talking about semi glue,

391
00:27:00.319 --> 00:27:04.599
Tide and Denver Region and I guess
you have a question, and Suzanne got

392
00:27:04.680 --> 00:27:10.039
up doctor Joel, who's with Denver
Region. Hey, Mike, what's your

393
00:27:10.119 --> 00:27:15.880
question? So? I was recently
diagnosed with diabetes too, and I cannot

394
00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:19.720
get my majarro. It's like always
sold out because everybody's using it for the

395
00:27:19.759 --> 00:27:26.480
weight loss? Can I use the
semi glue tight that this gentleman is selling

396
00:27:26.920 --> 00:27:30.640
and replace of the manjarro because it's
a weight loss. I'm not doing it

397
00:27:30.680 --> 00:27:34.160
for weight loss. I'm doing it
because I have Type two. But everybody's

398
00:27:34.200 --> 00:27:38.480
doing manjarro because it's a weight loss. Also, you know, Mike,

399
00:27:38.519 --> 00:27:41.319
I'm going to say something that I'm
going to bring doctor joelaup. But I'm

400
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:45.400
gonna I'm gonna tell you right now, no, because they don't prescribe it,

401
00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:51.640
doctor Joel, You guys do not
prescribe for diabetes whatsoever. Right,

402
00:27:52.279 --> 00:27:55.000
Okay, So I'm glad you asked
that question. Can you hear me?

403
00:27:55.279 --> 00:27:56.519
Yeah, we got you, man, Okay, No, I'm glad you

404
00:27:56.519 --> 00:28:00.680
asked that question because I just had
a discussion with our position last week about

405
00:28:00.720 --> 00:28:06.559
that we absolutely can treat patients for
diabetes, and so to answer this gentleman

406
00:28:07.000 --> 00:28:10.839
that yeah, we can, and
because it's a diabetic drug also, I

407
00:28:10.839 --> 00:28:14.599
mean that's the primary indication for using
these drugs, and people use them for

408
00:28:14.640 --> 00:28:17.960
weight loss. Obviously that's our primary
focus. But you know, we're we're

409
00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:22.440
we're perfectly capable of handling, uh, the diabetic issues and using this drug

410
00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:26.039
to treat that effectively. What this
gentleman's on is Monduro. Monduro's uh,

411
00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:33.519
the actual generic name is turuzetpetize ozembic. The generic name is some magnetize,

412
00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:38.200
So we do offer both. So
we could actually prescribe the same medication that's

413
00:28:38.200 --> 00:28:44.359
in Manduro to this gentleman and he
wouldn't be experiencing those shortage issues. And

414
00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:48.039
obviously it's a lot less expensive because
we're able to provide it from a compounding

415
00:28:48.039 --> 00:28:52.359
pharmacy. That being said, he'll
have a conversation with our physician and our

416
00:28:52.400 --> 00:28:59.839
patient coordinator to determine if he wants
to perhaps try this some magleotide instead,

417
00:29:00.200 --> 00:29:03.680
or if he would like to continue
on the maduro generic, which is the

418
00:29:03.720 --> 00:29:07.319
tir zeppetide. But it's a discussion
we can have. He can have with

419
00:29:07.359 --> 00:29:12.839
our physician. Really, our physician
will dig down into the uh the numbers

420
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:18.759
related to his diabetes so that that's
going to be controlled properly. But he'll

421
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:22.319
have a full the full ability to
really speak with our team and our physician

422
00:29:22.599 --> 00:29:26.720
and figure out what the best course
of action will be for him. But

423
00:29:26.880 --> 00:29:29.559
what the short answer is, yes, we can treat the diabetes with either

424
00:29:29.640 --> 00:29:33.000
drugs. Go ahead, What is
the what? What is the cost?

425
00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:36.880
Because right now that's what he's saying. He doesn't know he's got He's got

426
00:29:36.880 --> 00:29:41.599
to figure out. Ahead for one
month, is eleven for four pill or

427
00:29:41.640 --> 00:29:48.559
fourpence? My insurance only covers five
hundred and fifty for four pence? What

428
00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:52.920
is the cost for four pens?
For you guys? If I go that

429
00:29:52.039 --> 00:29:55.359
route, well, hold on,
hold on, doctor Joel, am I

430
00:29:55.480 --> 00:29:59.920
crazy? Every pen's different, right? Yeah? Well, let me just

431
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:03.799
kind of I'm on a two point
five. It's it's a little bit different

432
00:30:04.519 --> 00:30:10.799
because of how the dosageing works with
the pen versus the you know, what

433
00:30:10.839 --> 00:30:14.799
we order as a vial of the
drug. So to kind of convert it

434
00:30:15.039 --> 00:30:19.119
a three month supply. Well,
we charged for a three month supply for

435
00:30:19.480 --> 00:30:25.160
the churzeppetide would be uh three seventy
five a month, so that would give

436
00:30:25.200 --> 00:30:30.519
you three months of that. If
it's the soneglotide, it's two fifty a

437
00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:34.559
month. And what we do is
we charge the first two months up front.

438
00:30:34.680 --> 00:30:37.640
You skip a payment on the second
month, and then it's uh,

439
00:30:37.799 --> 00:30:41.559
then you say the third month.
Yeah, that's as basic as a gat

440
00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:44.839
stock. So Mike really from here
you just need to call him. He

441
00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:48.359
just gave you the prices, but
they need to actually talk to you figure

442
00:30:48.400 --> 00:30:52.519
out what your A one C or
whatever they generally do to figure out your

443
00:30:52.559 --> 00:30:56.519
dosage. But Denver Region seven two
zero five eight three sixteen forty eight,

444
00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:00.640
real quick, doc? How effective
is it for weight loss? You guys

445
00:31:00.640 --> 00:31:03.519
have been doing this. You were
one of the first ones out there doing

446
00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:07.160
it at just low cost of two
hundred and fifty bucks a month for weight

447
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:11.079
loss on the SAMEGA tide, what
are you seeing? Are people dropping five

448
00:31:11.200 --> 00:31:15.839
pounds a month? Ten pounds?
What are we talking on average? What

449
00:31:15.039 --> 00:31:21.880
is it we're seeing twenty to thirty
percent loss in body weight over the course

450
00:31:21.920 --> 00:31:26.799
of about four to six months.
That's incredible. It's absolutely incredible, Denver

451
00:31:26.880 --> 00:31:30.920
Regent, doctor Joel, I appreciate
you coming on for that question. You're

00:31:40.880 --> 00:31:44.000
listen, they'll answer all your questions. It's not a big deal.

455
00:31:44.319 --> 00:31:48.720
You heard those numbers. Thirty forty
percent weight. Can you imagine thirty to

456
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:55.000
forty percent two hundred and fifty dollars
a month. Get all the details.

457
00:31:55.079 --> 00:32:00.200
Seven to zero five eight three,
sixteen forty eight. Now Bill has as

458
00:32:00.319 --> 00:32:05.279
a question on restoration. Bill,
is that right? What's going on?

459
00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:09.279
Man? Hey? Mark? Hey
Man, So what's going on? Is?

460
00:32:10.079 --> 00:32:13.720
Are you there? I am here? Go ahead, sir, okay,

461
00:32:13.759 --> 00:32:17.559
thank you. So Mark, here's
the situation. Had a restoration started

462
00:32:17.880 --> 00:32:23.920
when I'm nineteen seventy Cutlass World four
to two about in twenty two December twenty

463
00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:34.279
two, the guy Henry Keys last
year before the summer, and then moved

464
00:32:34.319 --> 00:32:36.559
down to Texas. Hey, Bill, a couple things. Hold on,

465
00:32:36.640 --> 00:32:38.400
let me just kind of start it
like this. When did you you brought

466
00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:43.920
a car to this guy. Yes, what's his name or his shop's name?

467
00:32:43.960 --> 00:32:50.799
What is it? LJ? Well? His shop is five Star Auto

468
00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:54.559
Restorations. He used to be in
Fountain, Colorado. He sents his move

469
00:32:54.680 --> 00:32:58.160
to Texas. Okay, when did
you bring up in the car and what

470
00:32:58.240 --> 00:33:04.759
kind of car was it? Nineteen
seventy Cutlass four four to two. So

471
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:13.759
you bring this Cutlass to him when
in twenty two December approximately maybe November?

472
00:33:13.799 --> 00:33:16.440
And what were you having him do
a complete restoration? Inside out? Engine?

473
00:33:16.519 --> 00:33:22.559
What? Just mechanical? Just mcan
transmissions, suspension? Did you pay

474
00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:29.599
him anything on the I paid as
I went. Okay, So where are

475
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:31.839
we at right now? Let's skip
everything till right now? Where are we

476
00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:36.000
at now? Do you have the
car back? Oh? Yeah, I've

477
00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:38.880
had the car back? Okay,
what's all the problems? The issue is

478
00:33:38.960 --> 00:33:44.599
the transmission. I don't even have
five hundred miles on this thing. The

479
00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:49.519
transmission, it's a monster. Transmission
has a four year warranty. Monster.

480
00:33:49.640 --> 00:33:52.400
When I talked to him this morning, said they won't even talk to me

481
00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:58.880
because it's the shot that owns the
warranty, not me, because I paid

482
00:33:58.960 --> 00:34:02.640
him on credit card. Hold on
one second, Hold on one second,

483
00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:07.279
Kevin, have you heard of Monster
Transmissions. Yeah? There, but that's

484
00:34:07.279 --> 00:34:09.920
a that's a weird warranty that you
have to go through the selling shop.

485
00:34:10.039 --> 00:34:14.079
I mean it's you know, I
mean, what good is that? I

486
00:34:14.119 --> 00:34:15.360
have no idea. Yeah, because
we do it. I mean, we

487
00:34:15.400 --> 00:34:20.239
have again a nationwide warranty and it's
it's you know, it's honored. It's

488
00:34:21.119 --> 00:34:23.280
like on a Jasper engine or something. I think Jasper. The warranty is

489
00:34:23.320 --> 00:34:27.320
with the customer, not with me. That is an odd way it is.

490
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:30.800
We're taking your word on that part. Bill. So here's what here's

491
00:34:30.800 --> 00:34:32.960
what Monster said this morning. They
said this is like they said, this

492
00:34:34.079 --> 00:34:39.039
is like hippa because the warranty five
Yeah, that's what that's what she said.

493
00:34:39.039 --> 00:34:44.000
I'm not kidding. She goes,
Because the purchase was under five star

494
00:34:44.519 --> 00:34:51.760
restoration. He owns that warranty.
He is responsible for advocating for that warranty.

495
00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:53.559
If you have problems, She goes, I can't even talk to you

496
00:34:53.559 --> 00:34:59.079
about this transmission because he's the one
who purchased. All right, let's let's

497
00:34:59.119 --> 00:35:01.800
even let's skip buy that for right
now. Let's gloss over that. Let's

498
00:35:01.840 --> 00:35:06.719
move on to this part. Then, So when you call this guy up

499
00:35:07.360 --> 00:35:09.519
and you say, I realized he
moved. But when you call up whoever

500
00:35:09.599 --> 00:35:15.039
owns five Star Auto Restoration and tell
them what's going on, will he not

501
00:35:15.159 --> 00:35:20.760
advocate? He won't even talk to
me anymore. That's what I'm there's a

502
00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:22.440
big in between. Okay. Now
the in between has to do with the

503
00:35:22.519 --> 00:35:27.320
credit card. It sounds like nope, okay, go ahead. What's the

504
00:35:27.360 --> 00:35:31.760
in between? The in between is
when I got the car back, there

505
00:35:31.840 --> 00:35:36.280
were so many issues. And he
told me before he left me and in

506
00:35:36.360 --> 00:35:38.800
the keys, hey, I'm good
for the warranties on anything that I did.

507
00:35:39.119 --> 00:35:42.840
Great. So I called him up
and said, Okay, I've got

508
00:35:42.840 --> 00:35:47.159
some issues. This car's not running
right. There's it's leaking oil at the

509
00:35:47.239 --> 00:35:53.000
rear main seal and also on the
front it sounds like it's sucking in there

510
00:35:53.119 --> 00:35:59.039
from the manifold gasket. Well,
he said, well, I'll come up

511
00:35:59.079 --> 00:36:01.320
and get it. Two months later, he's still not there. I mean,

512
00:36:01.400 --> 00:36:07.199
I probably text him, call him
weekly when you're coming with the situation.

513
00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:09.199
I'm coming. I'm coming. I
got to come back up there anyway,

514
00:36:09.280 --> 00:36:13.800
YadA, YadA, YadA. Never
gotting to come back up So he

515
00:36:13.880 --> 00:36:16.960
never did any of this, so
but keep going. Then I took it

516
00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:21.679
to another I was ready to punt
because it was getting into the summer and

517
00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:24.480
I had two shows. I wanted
to take my car too, So I

518
00:36:24.519 --> 00:36:29.119
take it to another shop. Well, unfortunately this shop, I mean,

519
00:36:29.239 --> 00:36:31.559
he looked at it and he said, okay, you got this, this

520
00:36:31.639 --> 00:36:35.039
and this wre all and he goes
he I mean he had a laundry list.

521
00:36:35.119 --> 00:36:37.559
Oh my god, chewing up the
serpentine belt. It was leaking from

522
00:36:37.559 --> 00:36:43.199
the rearmained seal. So this guy
did a horrible job. Horrible job.

523
00:36:43.360 --> 00:36:47.159
So where is it now? Though? Well I punted on all that,

524
00:36:47.320 --> 00:36:51.920
I just let it go. So
I took it to a new restoration guy.

525
00:36:52.000 --> 00:36:54.199
But why so hold on, I
got I gotta take this break bill.

526
00:36:54.199 --> 00:36:57.639
Here's what I want to know,
though, Why won't he help you

527
00:36:57.719 --> 00:37:01.280
out with monster if you're not worried
about all the other issues that happened and

528
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:05.639
all you really care about at this
point, at this point because you're fed

529
00:37:05.719 --> 00:37:08.440
up with them. If the only
thing you're worried about is a transmission,

530
00:37:08.719 --> 00:37:14.039
why is the owner so upset with
you that he won't advocate for that.

531
00:37:14.239 --> 00:37:22.480

we have something coming up. I
just can't believe it. I listened to

547
00:38:22.760 --> 00:38:25.639
this voicemail this morning, and Joe, I promise I got to finish up

548
00:38:25.679 --> 00:38:31.199
with Bill that I'm going to you. But it's a crazy story. I'm

549
00:38:31.320 --> 00:38:36.199
hoping it's not true. I really
am hoping it's not true. But Bill,

550
00:38:36.480 --> 00:38:37.880
just just bear with us. I'm
gonna get you. I gotta finish

551
00:38:38.000 --> 00:38:44.800
up with Bill though. So Bill, Bill had five star auto restoration dropped

552
00:38:44.800 --> 00:38:50.639
off his nineteen seventy cutlass into December
twenty twenty two or back in December twenty

553
00:38:50.679 --> 00:38:53.159
twenty two. He's got a problem
with the transmission. We're gonna get past

554
00:38:53.280 --> 00:38:59.079
all the other issues that went on
with it, because that's kind of where

555
00:38:59.119 --> 00:39:05.400
you're at. Bill. Correct,
that is correct. Oh, good question,

556
00:39:05.519 --> 00:39:10.159
Kevin. What was your total?
It was probably about fifteen Okay,

557
00:39:10.199 --> 00:39:14.719
so it's not correct. Yeah,
but we don't know everything that we did.

558
00:39:15.280 --> 00:39:16.920
There was other work done. There
was a lot of work done,

559
00:39:17.400 --> 00:39:21.079
you know, like a camshaft and
okay, well, I don't want to

560
00:39:21.119 --> 00:39:23.199
even go down that road. Here's
where I want to go down. Where

561
00:39:23.199 --> 00:39:28.360
did you guys? Why won't he
help you with this? It's obvious you

562
00:39:28.400 --> 00:39:31.760
had a lot of other problems that
you never you know, took took him.

563
00:39:34.320 --> 00:39:37.280
You never went after him for I
realized he left the state. But

564
00:39:37.559 --> 00:39:42.159
there was a lot of problems that
he got away with. So why won't

565
00:39:42.159 --> 00:39:45.599
he help you on this one by
just making a call? Yes, great

566
00:39:45.679 --> 00:39:50.199
question. So what happened was,
at the time that I took it to

567
00:39:50.239 --> 00:39:52.920
the mechanic, I called him up
and I said, Hey, I got

568
00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:55.679
all these I haven't had all these
repairs done that you did. You told

569
00:39:55.719 --> 00:40:00.239
me you were going to cover if
there was an issue, and you were

570
00:40:00.280 --> 00:40:02.199
going to be up here two months
ago. You're not here. I just

571
00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:06.400
want to let you know I'm paying
for all this. And he goes,

572
00:40:06.440 --> 00:40:09.159
well, I'm done with you.
I'm not you let another mechanic touch yourl

573
00:40:09.360 --> 00:40:13.000
touch my car that you worked on. And he hung up on me.

574
00:40:13.079 --> 00:40:14.920
Okay, let me ask you.
Okay, I get it, Bill,

575
00:40:14.960 --> 00:40:16.800
I get it. It sounds like
he's just a jerk. Let's put it.

576
00:40:17.079 --> 00:40:20.719
Let's just say what he is.
He's a jerk. So let me

577
00:40:20.760 --> 00:40:25.000
ask you something else. Man,
when you talk to Monster Transmissions, they're

578
00:40:25.039 --> 00:40:30.000
telling you only the shop that ordered
it or the person that ordered the tranny

579
00:40:30.320 --> 00:40:34.280
can do any kind of warranty issues
on it. If this guy was to

580
00:40:35.440 --> 00:40:37.760
go ahead, you didn't say thathing
he was the only one that could do

581
00:40:37.760 --> 00:40:40.599
the warranty. What they said was
he has to transfer that warning to me.

582
00:40:40.920 --> 00:40:44.400
He has to initiate. I get
it. I get it. He's

583
00:40:44.440 --> 00:40:46.519
got to transfer it, just like
you said. But you don't think he's

584
00:40:46.559 --> 00:40:51.800
going to do it. Now?
What is the guy's first name? LJ?

585
00:40:52.480 --> 00:40:55.280
So, Susan, I'm going to
put Bill on hold. Would you

586
00:40:55.400 --> 00:41:00.960
please try to reach out to LG. LJ? And let's see if he'll

587
00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:02.960
come on. And basically I just
want to ask him. I have a

588
00:41:04.039 --> 00:41:07.119
question for Kevin about this. So, Kevin, if you have a warranty

589
00:41:07.239 --> 00:41:10.719
issue and they decide to take it
to another shop have it fixed, do

590
00:41:10.800 --> 00:41:15.159
you reimburse that customer or would you
have rather had fixed it yourself? Only

591
00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:20.000
if we approve it prior if they
just go to another shop and then call

592
00:41:20.079 --> 00:41:22.639
him tell us, then no,
we want Well, but hold on,

593
00:41:22.719 --> 00:41:25.239
I don't even think that applies here. But let's find out everything fixed,

594
00:41:25.320 --> 00:41:30.920
is all I'm hearing. Bill?
Is that transmission fixed? Oh no,

595
00:41:30.920 --> 00:41:32.280
no, I haven't had a fix
yet. Yeah, okay, you need

596
00:41:32.320 --> 00:41:37.199
the warranty transfer right now, Suzanne, I think you're thinking about all the

597
00:41:37.280 --> 00:41:42.639
other stuff the guy apparently did wrong. He's paid out of pocket for okay,

598
00:41:42.639 --> 00:41:45.920
but the transmission you have not all
right? Hold on, Suzanne,

599
00:41:45.960 --> 00:41:50.719
grab Lj's number. What, Yeah, grab Lj's number. Let's see if

600
00:41:50.800 --> 00:41:53.159
Ljill come on and talk about it. You might grab Bill's last name so

601
00:41:53.199 --> 00:41:58.039
he knows who we're talking about.
And let's see what LJ does. We're

602
00:41:58.039 --> 00:42:00.639
going to exactly do that. We're
going to see what he does. Now.

603
00:42:01.119 --> 00:42:06.039
I'm looking at the clock. I
gotta break. Listen, Joe.

604
00:42:06.079 --> 00:42:08.039
I'm gonna bring you up real quick. Joe. I promise I got to

605
00:42:08.079 --> 00:42:12.480
take a break. You'll come first
up. But here's what it says on

606
00:42:12.519 --> 00:42:16.400
my screen. The Air Force base
is holding a gal hostage. Are you

607
00:42:16.519 --> 00:42:22.639
kidding me? What is this?
Yes? It is. That's what you're

608
00:42:22.639 --> 00:42:29.519
saying. That is what the gal
is saying out it where loudly louder Air

609
00:42:29.559 --> 00:42:35.360
Force Base and downver And how do
you know this girl? Well, I'm

610
00:42:35.360 --> 00:42:40.840
over online. She introduced herself on
Facebook dating. Okay, and at the

611
00:42:40.920 --> 00:42:45.440
beginning I saw it was a scam. It's a scam, but I'm already.

612
00:42:45.239 --> 00:42:49.639
Yeah, but then my better fight
it was I'm not the person the

613
00:42:49.760 --> 00:42:52.039
one time her phone broke down there. Wait wait, wait, Joe,

614
00:42:52.119 --> 00:42:59.159
did you just say you verified it's
real? I'm not a nunderd percent sure,

615
00:42:59.280 --> 00:43:01.559
that's what I need. Okay,
listen, hold tight, just hold

616
00:43:01.599 --> 00:43:06.239
on. We'll come to you after
this doc. I'm with you. I

617
00:43:06.280 --> 00:43:10.159
don't know how this could be possible. I'll say something though. The voice

618
00:43:10.199 --> 00:43:15.719
message Joe left this morning was very
disturbing, very disturbing. I think he

619
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:20.840
believes what he's what he believes it. Let's try to help him out.

620
00:43:20.880 --> 00:43:23.320
I wonder if he's given her any
money yet. I wonder what's happened.

three oh three seven one three eight two

630
00:44:07.400 --> 00:44:10.840
five five. We have got a
ton going on. We're trying to reach

631
00:44:10.920 --> 00:44:19.639
out to uh, what was our
auto restoration j right? L J LJ?

632
00:44:19.760 --> 00:44:22.159
Did we leave a message or try
to get voicemail? And I've also

633
00:44:22.239 --> 00:44:27.519
texted the guy Okay, hopefully we
hear something back. This guy just needs

634
00:44:27.559 --> 00:44:31.519
to transfer a warranty. If need
be, we can get our listeners involved

635
00:44:31.559 --> 00:44:36.599
and maybe pressure this guy. It's
not a big deal. The caller's not

636
00:44:36.760 --> 00:44:40.280
asking for any of the labor.
He's saying, simply transfer the warranty to

637
00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:45.960
me. That's what Monster Transmission needs
this guy to do. And that is

638
00:44:45.960 --> 00:44:51.159
pretty common. Ye, there's some
because when you said the uh, you

639
00:44:51.199 --> 00:44:54.000
know jafper, same same thing.
The customer has to go online and register

640
00:44:54.119 --> 00:44:58.639
the part to get the warranty.
Yeah, so it sounds like a no

641
00:44:58.719 --> 00:45:00.800
brainer, yes, but this guy
sounds like he's so pissed. I think

642
00:45:00.960 --> 00:45:05.239
all he really should do. Here's
here's what I'm going to tell him if

643
00:45:05.239 --> 00:45:07.800
he calls I don't care if he's
mad at the guy. What I think

644
00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:12.039
he should do is transfer it.
And then the guy, if he really

645
00:45:12.079 --> 00:45:15.000
wants it done, he signs a
release saying it's done and over. You

646
00:45:15.079 --> 00:45:19.960
transfer the warranty. I won't bother
you anymore. Then he gives coming out.

647
00:45:20.000 --> 00:45:22.280
Why is he fighting that? Yeah? I mean, then he gets

648
00:45:22.320 --> 00:45:27.440
it. I mean we're going to
figure it out. I don't care.

649
00:45:27.480 --> 00:45:30.199
Our reach goes further than Texas.
Doesn't cost him anything to transfer the warranty.

650
00:45:30.280 --> 00:45:32.639
Yeah, it doesn't cost him a
nickel, nothing. But maybe this

651
00:45:32.719 --> 00:45:37.440
guy did something to him that made
him angry. I know, I'm sure.

652
00:45:37.559 --> 00:45:39.719
I'm sure there's something there. We're
not we're not missing, yeah,

653
00:45:39.840 --> 00:45:43.800
or we are missing? All right? What is this? What does Bob

654
00:45:43.840 --> 00:45:45.920
with l em want? So?
Mark, yesterday a gentleman called in.

655
00:45:45.960 --> 00:45:51.199
I don't know if you remember about
getting some estimates on a deck job.

656
00:45:51.559 --> 00:45:54.880
Yeah, and so anyway, I
gave the guy Bob's number. Bob is

657
00:45:54.920 --> 00:45:59.320
now supposed to meet him, but
Bob has lost his phone number, and

658
00:45:59.360 --> 00:46:00.519
so we're just trying to get the
word out because I don't have the guy's

659
00:46:00.519 --> 00:46:04.400
info. God, I have no
idea. I don't have the guy's info.

660
00:46:04.719 --> 00:46:07.719
Yeah, So if someone out there
is trying to meet up with Bob

661
00:46:08.280 --> 00:46:12.559
with l EM Landscaping, he's on
a referral list, Bob, I don't

662
00:46:12.599 --> 00:46:15.880
know what other info to give you. I have no idea what his number

663
00:46:15.000 --> 00:46:22.360
was, Bob, I have no
idea what his number is. Man,

664
00:46:22.440 --> 00:46:25.880
So I don't even know how you'd
find it. Well, and what's so

665
00:46:27.039 --> 00:46:30.559
bad if he sets an ism or
he loved what I had to tell him,

666
00:46:30.559 --> 00:46:32.840
and I was saving his number and
hit the glee button. His name

667
00:46:32.960 --> 00:46:37.679
is Jerry. He was looking.
He was asking the show, asking Tom

668
00:46:37.719 --> 00:46:40.000
if he ever heard a grand view
deck in patio, and Tom said,

669
00:46:40.119 --> 00:46:43.920
no, I haven't, but you
should get other estimates. Okay, So

670
00:46:44.000 --> 00:46:47.320
if that guy's listening right now,
call Bob with l EM. Bob,

671
00:46:47.360 --> 00:46:53.719
what number are you at right now? Three or three? Five? Nine,

672
00:46:53.559 --> 00:46:57.280
one o four? I'm telling him, I'm old, I mess up,

673
00:46:57.599 --> 00:47:00.480
and if you get the job,
I get a percent. At this

674
00:47:00.599 --> 00:47:02.760
point, oh of course, I'll
couse you guys to launch. All right,

675
00:47:02.920 --> 00:47:06.800
Bob, that's Bob with l EM. Say it one more time,

676
00:47:06.840 --> 00:47:09.039
Bob. If that guy out there
is ready to meet with Bob, he

677
00:47:09.239 --> 00:47:15.000
lost your phone number. He needs
to call you, so call him.

678
00:47:13.960 --> 00:47:19.519
All right, pull you guys,
three h three six four nine four All

679
00:47:19.599 --> 00:47:22.519
right later Bob three oh three seven
one three eight two five five. Now

680
00:47:22.559 --> 00:47:24.559
back to Joe. Hey, Joe, So, first of all, this

681
00:47:24.679 --> 00:47:29.639
has got to be a scam.
I guarantee the Air Force base isn't holding

682
00:47:29.760 --> 00:47:34.679
any woman hostage out there. Have
you spent any money with this person?

683
00:47:36.639 --> 00:47:39.400
Yes? Up up to eleven thousand? Okay, how did you spend it?

684
00:47:39.480 --> 00:47:50.199
Oh my goodness, Oh my goodness. On the how did this whole

685
00:47:50.199 --> 00:47:57.000
thing start? Uh? She's up
to me on my profile on Facebook dating.

686
00:47:57.239 --> 00:48:00.400
Yeah, there's a lot of scam. I'm a lawyer, off,

687
00:48:00.760 --> 00:48:05.840
I've been exposed to a lot just
from think me. Hey, Joe,

688
00:48:05.960 --> 00:48:07.360
let me ask you a question.
How old are you and how old is

689
00:48:07.400 --> 00:48:15.199
she? Shoot? Thirty years old? I'm fifty nine, Yeah, sixty

690
00:48:15.280 --> 00:48:20.039
nine, sixty nine five nine five
to nine five. Okay, so's a

691
00:48:20.079 --> 00:48:27.320
thirty year age gap. Yeah,
yes, it's Well, it's a scam.

692
00:48:27.400 --> 00:48:30.079
There's no doubt it's a scam.
Where's it sitting right now? You

693
00:48:30.159 --> 00:48:32.079
must know it's a scam by now, Joe, I mean, listen to

694
00:48:32.119 --> 00:48:37.400
get money back through cash app.
This person is probably this thirty year old

695
00:48:37.400 --> 00:48:42.960
woman is probably a eighteen year old
dude sitting in a call center. Uh

696
00:48:43.000 --> 00:48:45.880
in Jamaica. I mean this could
be anywhere. Man, Is it in

697
00:48:45.960 --> 00:48:51.480
Nigeria or Pakistan? Are with you? Okay? So what's the issue?

698
00:48:51.559 --> 00:48:54.000
Now? Hold on though, Doc, here's a problem I don't understand,

699
00:48:54.159 --> 00:48:59.239
Joe. In fact, here's what
I want to do. There's one thing

700
00:48:59.719 --> 00:49:07.079
that is making me really wonder about
this call. I mean really wonder about

701
00:49:07.119 --> 00:49:15.519
it. You're acknowledging right now that
you were scammed, which is so I'm

702
00:49:15.559 --> 00:49:21.920
not looking for money back. I'm
ty if I can get get her help

703
00:49:22.000 --> 00:49:25.719
for what to get out of the
air Force space loud AIRPK. See,

704
00:49:25.760 --> 00:49:30.000
this is where it doesn't You're saying
two different things, Jo, She's not

705
00:49:30.760 --> 00:49:34.519
Doc. I think he knows that. That's where I'm saying. I almost

706
00:49:34.559 --> 00:49:38.280
feel like you're playing me, Joe? Are you playing me? What would

707
00:49:38.320 --> 00:49:42.000
I want to do that? I
have no idea why you would want to

708
00:49:42.039 --> 00:49:44.679
do that, I don't know.
But here's what I want to do.

709
00:49:45.320 --> 00:49:46.519
Suzanne, do me a favor.
By the way, we do have one

710
00:49:46.559 --> 00:49:51.039
line open three oh three seven one
three eight two five five. So what

711
00:49:51.119 --> 00:49:54.519
I just heard for the first two
minutes of that call and even prior to

712
00:49:54.559 --> 00:49:59.920
going to break and coming back,
is Joe knows he was scammed, knows

713
00:50:00.039 --> 00:50:04.719
he's not gonna get his money back. But then he throws in his goal

714
00:50:04.840 --> 00:50:07.840
right now as to what get the
woman out of the Air Force base.

715
00:50:07.639 --> 00:50:10.639
So I don't know what to make
of that, but I do want to

716
00:50:10.679 --> 00:50:15.400
say something when we come back from
break, and I'm not taking a break

717
00:50:15.519 --> 00:50:19.400
right now, but I got to
give these two in there, Suzanne,

718
00:50:20.440 --> 00:50:23.639
excuse me some time to get the
voicemail he left. What he is saying

719
00:50:23.719 --> 00:50:29.159
now compared to the voicemail, does
he cuss on it? I deleted it

720
00:50:29.199 --> 00:50:32.760
already. Oh God, sorry,
Bebe. Let's never ever do that,

721
00:50:34.000 --> 00:50:38.199
ever, ever, ever, ever, ever. I delete him as soon

722
00:50:38.199 --> 00:50:40.440
as I listened to him. Yeah, not a good one like that,

723
00:50:42.320 --> 00:50:45.639
I'm gonna say. But I do
have the gals picture and phone number sitting

724
00:50:45.719 --> 00:50:51.400
here. You should hear this voicemail. He is so terrified that they're going

725
00:50:51.480 --> 00:50:54.480
to kill her and they won't let
her go, completely different than he just

726
00:50:54.559 --> 00:50:57.880
sounded. Do you think it was
phone, Jeff? Do you think it

727
00:50:57.920 --> 00:51:00.559
was phony baloney. I think so. I think it's phony blooney. I'll

728
00:51:00.559 --> 00:51:04.840
be honest, Joe, I don't
think you're that stupid. I think you're

729
00:51:04.880 --> 00:51:10.320
making this whole thing up. Not
if well, okay, you feel stupid.

730
00:51:10.440 --> 00:51:14.639
What would you like us to do? She's not there, she's not

731
00:51:14.760 --> 00:51:17.639
there? What else would you like? Sir? I'd like you to see

732
00:51:17.679 --> 00:51:22.599
if he can help verify and if
I'm wrong? I accepted them a right

733
00:51:22.679 --> 00:51:24.119
hold on? Hold on, No, he's right, hold on, he's

734
00:51:24.119 --> 00:51:28.320
got a point. Hold hold on, you got a point man. Let

735
00:51:28.360 --> 00:51:31.559

738
00:51:43.360 --> 00:51:45.159
like to ask you something. Joe
is on the phone, by the way,

Yeah, just hit the bluetooth button

00:53:49.559 --> 00:53:52.119

00:53:52.840 --> 00:53:57.199
thank you for checking. Yeah,
tell me when you're ready. Yeah,

766
00:53:57.239 --> 00:54:00.280
it's fine, We'll stick with this. So I know a couple of

767
00:54:00.320 --> 00:54:04.599
things here. One just from what's
on the call screener, adult with disability.

768
00:54:04.599 --> 00:54:07.280
And I heard you say a name
of a store Goodwill? Is that

769
00:54:07.320 --> 00:54:15.519
correct? Yes, it's called the
Fresh Star commercial laundry. They employed the

770
00:54:15.719 --> 00:54:23.480
most adults with disability and no,
hold on, let me just ask a

771
00:54:23.519 --> 00:54:34.719
few questions, Rosie. So fresh
Start commercial laundry. Yes, and where

772
00:54:34.840 --> 00:54:42.519
is that? This is a the
Genital Road, Colorado Springs, Colorado.

773
00:54:42.719 --> 00:54:46.039
And is it a laundry, Matt, what is it? Yeah? So

774
00:54:46.119 --> 00:54:52.519
it's a commercial laundry that takes contracts
even from hotels. I got it.

775
00:54:52.599 --> 00:54:57.880
I got it. And there is
a lot of people that work there that

776
00:54:57.920 --> 00:55:05.719
are disabled. They are disabled and
allow mostly women too that don't speak English.

777
00:55:05.800 --> 00:55:08.840
A lot of elder women in their
fifties are they But Rosie, are

778
00:55:08.840 --> 00:55:15.559
they still disabled even though so they
don't speak English and they're disabled. They

779
00:55:15.840 --> 00:55:22.239
both they are nons in English,
which are older women. And then you

780
00:55:22.400 --> 00:55:29.079
have the American adults with disabilities.
Okay, out of curiosity before we get

781
00:55:29.119 --> 00:55:31.480
into the purpose of the call.
I don't know this, and I'm sure

782
00:55:31.519 --> 00:55:38.360
you do. Do they make the
same hourly as someone that is not disabled,

783
00:55:42.440 --> 00:55:45.280
Yes and no. So they work
the few people that I know,

784
00:55:45.400 --> 00:55:52.159
I know about eight of them.
They work there from ten years, fifteen

785
00:55:52.239 --> 00:55:57.960
years, eight years. The way
they argue that is because they say,

786
00:55:58.000 --> 00:56:02.239
well they how they document and did
they end up justifying? Rosie? Maybe

787
00:56:02.280 --> 00:56:06.320
I didn't. I can already tell. I can already tell I probably confused

788
00:56:06.360 --> 00:56:08.079
you in my question. Let me
let me try again. Here's what I'm

789
00:56:08.079 --> 00:56:14.239
looking for. I had an uncle. He passed away a long time ago,

790
00:56:14.719 --> 00:56:19.440
but he was handicapped, he was
mentally disabled. He worked at a

791
00:56:19.519 --> 00:56:24.880
couple places over the years, through
a different pro through different programs, and

792
00:56:25.000 --> 00:56:30.719
what would happen is they would actually
not pay whatever the state minimum wage was

793
00:56:30.800 --> 00:56:34.920
they didn't have to pay that he
made a lot less money than other people

794
00:56:34.960 --> 00:56:38.320
that worked there, but it was
legal because of his situation. Is it

795
00:56:38.480 --> 00:56:43.920
still that same way? It is
still the same way. Okay, So

796
00:56:44.119 --> 00:56:49.159
now let's go directly to Fresh Start
Commercial Laundry and you know eight people that

797
00:56:49.280 --> 00:56:55.519
work there. What's going on right
now? Right now that I personally have

798
00:56:55.679 --> 00:57:04.719
reported the situation on a yearly basis, what is the situation? The situation

799
00:57:05.000 --> 00:57:12.039
is they have a project manager that
has been working there for twenty years,

800
00:57:12.079 --> 00:57:16.119
and what goes on on a daily
basis is say, for example, you

801
00:57:16.280 --> 00:57:22.199
have a person who is deaf and
mute, and she'll yell at that person

802
00:57:22.480 --> 00:57:29.599
and say the meaning words of why
such and so is not so Wait a

803
00:57:29.639 --> 00:57:32.840
second, Rosie, what you said
is kind of interesting. So you use

804
00:57:32.880 --> 00:57:38.400
an example of someone that's deaf and
mute and they're yelling and being verbally abusive,

805
00:57:38.440 --> 00:57:43.400
but they don't even know what's happening, right, That is correct,

806
00:57:43.599 --> 00:57:46.320
But the other people know it's happening. It's almost like they're making fun of

807
00:57:46.360 --> 00:57:54.039
them. Correct. Yes, they
bully them most of the time. They

808
00:57:57.199 --> 00:58:04.079
create a hostile situation. They'll make
another coworker make fun of them or complain

809
00:58:04.719 --> 00:58:07.280
or you're not going to lunch.
Because now have you, Rosie, have

810
00:58:07.320 --> 00:58:15.920
you have you witnessed this firsthand?
I have in a few occasions. I

811
00:58:15.119 --> 00:58:22.039
don't work there, but I have
gone there to meet with someone who Rosie,

812
00:58:22.039 --> 00:58:23.199
I'm going to put you on hold. Rosie, I'm going to put

813
00:58:23.199 --> 00:58:28.239
you on hold. This is very
disturbing to me. Like I said,

814
00:58:28.239 --> 00:58:32.320
I have got somewhat of a personal
connection because of my uncle and over the

815
00:58:32.400 --> 00:58:37.119
years him working at I think it
was arc thrift store, and there was

816
00:58:37.119 --> 00:58:39.559
some other places. He even worked
at a bowling alley. Uh, there

817
00:58:39.639 --> 00:58:44.440
was some stuff there that we really
did not like. So I see where

818
00:58:44.440 --> 00:58:49.000
you're going. Everybody, hold tight, Michael and Lauren and Jason, everybody.

819

834
01:00:15.840 --> 01:00:20.679
have Deputy Doc by my side,

it's a good day to call.
I'll tell you when the line's open.

837
01:00:25.760 --> 01:00:30.599
But the numbers I really want you
to focus on remembering is three zho

838
01:00:30.639 --> 01:00:35.960
three Martino three zero three Martino.
And then you can also remember a help

839
01:00:36.000 --> 01:00:38.400
at troubleshooter dot com. That's how
you remember it. That's the number you

840
01:00:38.519 --> 01:00:43.119
spread. You got a neighbor that
needs some help because somebody screwed him over

841
01:00:43.159 --> 01:00:46.639
on a fence or some cement guy. You know, I've never trusted an

842
01:00:46.679 --> 01:00:51.480
asphalt guy. Am I wrong in
saying that they always seem to be in

843
01:00:51.519 --> 01:00:54.840
the neighborhood working on a project and
have extra asphalt. I live out in

844
01:00:54.840 --> 01:00:59.440
Frankdown, so there's a lot of
dirt roads and a lot of dirt driveways,

845
01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:01.679
and it's sure enough anytime I see
them, they happen to be in

846
01:01:01.719 --> 01:01:07.519
the neighborhood. They just happen to
be there. There's so many scams out

847
01:01:07.519 --> 01:01:09.400
there. That's why this show's been
going on for forty years, and I

848
01:01:09.400 --> 01:01:14.119
don't see it going anywhere. For
this reason. Scams aren't going away Jack.

849
01:01:14.880 --> 01:01:16.000
In fact, they're getting worse.
They are, they're getting smarter.

850
01:01:16.320 --> 01:01:21.960
Some of the AI ones. The
AI ones are really scary because they make

851
01:01:22.000 --> 01:01:24.599
it sound like it's real. I
can pretty much replace Doc with AI.

852
01:01:24.760 --> 01:01:28.760
Now, No, I'm not kidding. It wouldn't be that hard. No,

853
01:01:28.800 --> 01:01:34.320
it would be AU Artificial unintelligence.
That was good Doc, all right?

854
01:01:34.320 --> 01:01:37.280
Three three seven one three eight two
five five. That's the telephone number.

859
01:01:55.679 --> 01:02:00.599
going to get a better price like
that on a residential service, but you

01:02:00.679 --> 01:02:02.800
call them up there and give you
a bid most of the time right over

861
01:02:02.840 --> 01:02:07.360

do. But that includes the battery back

862

Hey Mark, Yes, ma'am, I

868
01:02:30.920 --> 01:02:35.920
need to get back go ahead for
Rosie. I've just reached out to Rocky

869
01:02:35.920 --> 01:02:38.119
Mountain eightya and just waiting to hear
back. And in the meantime, I

870
01:02:38.159 --> 01:02:40.559
was hoping you could go to line
one he's been holding a long time.

871
01:02:40.679 --> 01:02:44.119
I can do that. How quick? Are they pretty good in it?

872
01:02:44.280 --> 01:02:45.480
Pretty good? But if not,
I can line it up for next week.

873
01:02:45.519 --> 01:02:49.320
We'll see. We know some great
people, Rosie. Let me just

874
01:02:49.400 --> 01:02:52.400
hate Hey, Rosie, I want
you to hang on because hopefully we're going

875
01:02:52.480 --> 01:02:58.519
to have one of the head in
Colorado of American with disabilities on and they're

876
01:02:58.679 --> 01:03:01.760
very powerful people to be quite frank
in a case like this. But we're

877
01:03:01.800 --> 01:03:05.320
really trying to get to the bottom
of this, so I want you to

878
01:03:05.360 --> 01:03:09.480
hold on. She knows some people, Rosie does, Susanna. You took

879
01:03:09.519 --> 01:03:14.440
down the name of where they work, Fresh Start laundry service, just because

880
01:03:14.440 --> 01:03:16.920
I already had it. Oh,
got a Fresh Start laundry service. And

881
01:03:17.320 --> 01:03:21.760
they're making fun of people. In
fact, there's one person there, according

882
01:03:21.760 --> 01:03:29.320
to Rosie, where one of the
supervisors is making fun of someone that cannot

883
01:03:29.400 --> 01:03:31.599
talk and cannot hear, so when
he's making fun of him, of course

884
01:03:31.639 --> 01:03:35.800
they don't know what's going on,
but the other people in the room do.

885
01:03:35.880 --> 01:03:39.719
It just sounds like a very abusive
situation, somewhat hard to believe in

886
01:03:39.760 --> 01:03:43.679
today's day an age, but man, we hear it all here. So

887
01:03:43.719 --> 01:03:46.320
We're going to try to figure out
the best course of action to help Rosie

888
01:03:46.320 --> 01:03:52.000
out in the people she knows.
Meantime, Michael, Michael's got a car

889
01:03:52.079 --> 01:03:54.599
question. Go ahead, Michael,
I do, sir. I've got a

890
01:03:54.679 --> 01:04:00.800
ninety six GMC Sierra two hundred and
the roughly forty thousand minds. The training

891
01:04:00.880 --> 01:04:05.000
went out, and I was wanting
to know is it better to have the

892
01:04:05.039 --> 01:04:10.920
training rebuilt? I don't want to
put a whole lot of money into it,

893
01:04:10.960 --> 01:04:13.559
but I know it's going to be
expensive. But if I do that,

894
01:04:13.679 --> 01:04:16.400
I'm gonna probably have to replace the
whole power train because I'm not going

895
01:04:16.480 --> 01:04:19.559
to invest that kind of money.
Or do I just scrap the whole thing?

896
01:04:20.239 --> 01:04:24.960
So well, you said when you
say buy a new one, Kevin,

897
01:04:25.039 --> 01:04:28.760
let me ask you something like like
Jeff over at KIM or he rebuilds

898
01:04:28.840 --> 01:04:32.679
transmissions, the shell, or what
a lot of us refer to as the

899
01:04:32.719 --> 01:04:36.159
core. Yeah, the case the
case, if it's not damaged. I

900
01:04:36.159 --> 01:04:41.360
mean, there's really no reason you
would ever replace that. No, because

901
01:04:41.400 --> 01:04:45.599
you're just buying a rebuilt that somebody
else did. Yeah, the biggest advantage

902
01:04:45.639 --> 01:04:47.440
is time. Yeah, but what
you do? No, no, no,

903
01:04:47.480 --> 01:04:50.960
what I'm saying, though, is
the outside of the transmission. Here's

904
01:04:50.960 --> 01:04:57.079
what I'm trying to say. Why
would anybody buy a brand new transmission transition?

905
01:04:57.400 --> 01:05:00.360
You can't even Okay, So basically
he's talking about a rebuilt. He's

906
01:05:00.360 --> 01:05:03.920
talking about a rebuilt. Yeah,
and what do you think a rebuilt would

907
01:05:03.960 --> 01:05:08.440
cost for that ninety six era?
Well, it depends two or four wheel

908
01:05:08.519 --> 01:05:13.199
drive? Four four, so you
probably probably close to two grand for the

909
01:05:13.239 --> 01:05:15.840
transmission plus the install What is the
R and R are the remoser? Yeah,

910
01:05:15.880 --> 01:05:18.760
it's six eight hours. I mean
you're probably about three grand, so

911
01:05:18.840 --> 01:05:23.519
you're about three thousand. How many
miles around the engine? My forty?

912
01:05:23.559 --> 01:05:28.119
Is what he said? Is that
a good longevity vehicle or what? Yeah?

913
01:05:28.199 --> 01:05:30.199
I mean, if it's well taken
care of, it's is five to

914
01:05:30.199 --> 01:05:32.239
seven? Is the best motor Chever
ever made? Is it really? Oh?

915
01:05:32.320 --> 01:05:35.440
Yeah? So half a million possible? Yeah, that's pushing. But

916
01:05:35.480 --> 01:05:40.480
yeah, how much is that motor? You'd probably spend between five and seven

917
01:05:40.559 --> 01:05:43.159
on something like that, so you're
you know, you're all in probably about

918
01:05:43.159 --> 01:05:45.800
eight to ten grand. Michael.
Does it run well? I mean going

919
01:05:45.840 --> 01:05:48.840
down the road when the transmission worked, does the engine seem like it's in

920
01:05:48.880 --> 01:05:54.039
good shape. The engine seems like
it's in good shape. It seems like

921
01:05:54.079 --> 01:06:00.960
it's solid. It's just I'm concerned
with that many miles and obviously you know

922
01:06:00.079 --> 01:06:04.760
the year of the vehicle. It's
it's about time to go through and change

923
01:06:04.760 --> 01:06:08.840
out the bushing. What do you
think all that stuff, Michael, What

924
01:06:08.880 --> 01:06:13.400
do you think if that transmission wasn't
broke. Let's look at this in a

925
01:06:13.440 --> 01:06:16.599
different way. If it was not
broken, the vehicle was running good before,

926
01:06:16.639 --> 01:06:20.239
just like it was before the transmission
went out. However it was just

927
01:06:20.360 --> 01:06:24.519
like that. What do you think
you could have sold that vehicle for?

928
01:06:26.599 --> 01:06:31.519
Well, I mean, I've looked
at it online, probably about five grand,

929
01:06:31.599 --> 01:06:35.800
five six grand, so and I
would say that's probably right. So

930
01:06:35.880 --> 01:06:41.440
let's say let's take the higher number
six And it really doesn't matter what number

931
01:06:41.440 --> 01:06:45.159
you're talking about. So if you
sold it right now, when it's not

932
01:06:45.360 --> 01:06:51.199
running, what is it worth?
Uh? Junk? I've seen people,

933
01:06:51.400 --> 01:06:55.480
Yeah, I've seen people try and
get two and three grand out but they

934
01:06:55.519 --> 01:07:00.280
ain't selling. Yeah. Well that's
hard. Yeah, see, I don't

935
01:07:00.320 --> 01:07:02.559
yeah, I don't know. That's
what I'm asking because all you really got

936
01:07:02.559 --> 01:07:06.280
to do is the math if Kevin, can put a transmission or rebuild in

937
01:07:06.320 --> 01:07:14.159
there with a warranty for three thousand
dollars or less, then you have a

938
01:07:14.280 --> 01:07:18.480
vehicle that's worth six grand using the
numbers we're talking about. So if you

939
01:07:18.639 --> 01:07:23.440
sold it, you would actually probably
if you put the transmission in and put

940
01:07:23.519 --> 01:07:26.800
it up for sale, you might
actually end up better than if you got

941
01:07:26.880 --> 01:07:30.119
rid of it right now. So, I mean, that's just a decision

942
01:07:30.119 --> 01:07:32.360
you got to make. How long
that engine's gonna last? Kevin, This

943
01:07:32.440 --> 01:07:36.000
sounds crazy, there's no crystal balls. Sure, but if you did.

944
01:07:36.079 --> 01:07:41.000
I remember back in my day,
we would send oil out occasionally to Titan.

945
01:07:41.280 --> 01:07:43.760
I think it was called Titan.
Yeah, they could do analysis and

946
01:07:43.840 --> 01:07:45.239
different things. Yeah. Yeah,
So you drain, you do an oil

947
01:07:45.320 --> 01:07:48.320
change, you basically put some in
a tube. Sure, you ship it

948
01:07:48.320 --> 01:07:53.320
off to Titan and they look for
stuff. Is that a good with an

949
01:07:53.320 --> 01:07:56.880
engine with over two hundred thousands?
Because I can pretty well guarantee they're going

950
01:07:56.920 --> 01:08:00.320
to find metal in the oil because
it does have too much. There's no

951
01:08:00.360 --> 01:08:02.679
way to tell what we're talking about. No, it's from here on out,

952
01:08:02.719 --> 01:08:06.000
he's on borrow time. Well,
of course, you know he's got

953
01:08:06.280 --> 01:08:10.079
his milet's out of it. It
could go another hundred, it could go

954
01:08:10.159 --> 01:08:13.159
another ten. There's just no way
of knowing. That's the other way to

955
01:08:13.159 --> 01:08:15.039
look at him, Michael. If
you put three thousand dollars into it and

956
01:08:15.079 --> 01:08:18.680
get another forty thousand miles, that
was a hell of a good spend exactly.

957
01:08:18.920 --> 01:08:21.279
So I mean, really, man, I don't know. You got

958
01:08:21.319 --> 01:08:27.560
to just do the math. Bro
Okay, I just want to get your

959
01:08:27.600 --> 01:08:30.920
opinion. I'm fitting at that point. Yeah, I mean, you know

960
01:08:30.000 --> 01:08:32.840
what, Okay, we get them
all the time, and you know,

961
01:08:33.239 --> 01:08:36.760
to replace itself. If you buy
something for twenty grand and then you got

962
01:08:36.760 --> 01:08:40.119
to put money into it to get
repairs done, I mean, are you

963
01:08:40.199 --> 01:08:43.760
ahead or you know? That's the
question customers get in there. I'm a

964
01:08:43.800 --> 01:08:46.720
horrible person to ask that because you
never keep cars. I never keep a

965
01:08:46.760 --> 01:08:50.520
car the second before I sell them, not every time, but I sew

966
01:08:50.600 --> 01:08:54.520
them before they go out of bumper
to bumper warranty, yep. Because I

967
01:08:54.520 --> 01:08:56.760
don't got to mess with it.
And I'll tell you one of the reasons,

968
01:08:57.439 --> 01:08:59.600
Michael. This has nothing to do
with you. But I don't want

969
01:08:59.600 --> 01:09:02.600
to sell a car to somebody and
they call me up on the radio telling

970
01:09:02.680 --> 01:09:05.880
me he sold me a Leno or
something. So I truly do try to

971
01:09:05.920 --> 01:09:11.439
sell cars when they're still under warranty. Plus it's the easiest time to sell

972
01:09:11.479 --> 01:09:15.039
them. Yep. But Michael,
Okay, if it was yours, what

973
01:09:15.079 --> 01:09:16.359
would you do? Kevin, let's
go right there. If I liked the

974
01:09:16.399 --> 01:09:18.960
truck, I'd put the training in
it, you would, yep, All

975
01:09:19.039 --> 01:09:24.439
right, there you go, Bro. And who's the Kimber Transmission? You

976
01:09:24.479 --> 01:09:26.560
say, well, you could check
with Jeff. He's very good at it.

977
01:09:26.640 --> 01:09:29.479
Yeah, that's the best place.
Yeah. So Kevin's was Sheridan Auto

978
01:09:29.520 --> 01:09:31.880
Tech. So they're both on our
referral list. Call up, go to

979
01:09:31.880 --> 01:09:38.399
Shardan Auto Tech dot com or Transmission
Denver dot com exactly, and Jeff would

980
01:09:38.439 --> 01:09:42.359
rebuild that. We would replace it. Yeah, So Kevin would buy one

981
01:09:43.039 --> 01:09:46.239
that like from Jasper or somebody that's
already rebuilt it and then ship the old

982
01:09:46.239 --> 01:09:50.039
one back to him. Jeff would
literally tear yours down and rebuild it.

983
01:09:50.159 --> 01:09:57.640
Yep. Okay, comprende have a
good day, bro, appreciate it.

1000
01:11:10.800 --> 01:11:15.079
and we are reaching out to her

this, this will get handled and
we're going to get the right people

1006
01:11:39.840 --> 01:11:45.359
involved and for people just joining us. Rosie is basically saying there's disabled mentally

1007
01:11:45.399 --> 01:11:51.560
disabled people working there, and she
gave one instance of someone that was death

1008
01:11:51.720 --> 01:11:59.399
and mute and the supervisor or someone
was actually yelling and screaming, which is

1009
01:11:59.479 --> 01:12:03.199
kind of like making fun of them
because they can't hear or see so or

1010
01:12:03.239 --> 01:12:06.600
I'm sorry, I can't I can't
hear her talk. So it's kind of

1011
01:12:06.640 --> 01:12:11.720
crazy the situation she was describing down
there. But Rosie, I wanted to

1012
01:12:11.760 --> 01:12:15.439
personally tell you right now, we're
gonna look into this. But Suzanne,

1013
01:12:15.439 --> 01:12:17.640
when I put you on hold again, is gonna get all your information.

1014
01:12:18.119 --> 01:12:23.039
We're gonna get our other person,
our angel lined up, and we're gonna

1015
01:12:23.039 --> 01:12:26.880
pick up on this come Monday.
Okay, I just I gotta have the

1016
01:12:26.960 --> 01:12:31.600
right person on this one. Absolutely, yes, because I have reported it

1017
01:12:31.640 --> 01:12:35.760
to the DHS. Yeah, listen, we've got I get you, and

1018
01:12:35.800 --> 01:12:39.720
I'm glad you did all that,
and we'll bring that up monday. But

1019
01:12:39.840 --> 01:12:44.640
we have someone that can literally open
up an investigation when it comes to if

1020
01:12:44.640 --> 01:12:48.119
they're breaking Adults with Disability rules.
So let's go there. Make sure hang

1021
01:12:48.199 --> 01:12:54.479
on until Suzanne gets all your information, and we'll reach back out to you.

1022
01:12:54.560 --> 01:12:57.319
Three oh three seven one three eight
two five five. We're gonna have

1023
01:12:57.399 --> 01:13:00.560
one line open in a second meantime. Jason, what is going on with

1024
01:13:00.600 --> 01:13:09.119
this car purchase? Hi? So
I purchased a car last Friday. I

1025
01:13:09.239 --> 01:13:15.359
put two thousand dollars down when I
signed the papers, and then my boyfriend's

1026
01:13:15.439 --> 01:13:21.039
father had gotten a bonus from his
job that he deposited the check on Monday,

1027
01:13:21.159 --> 01:13:25.199
and the money still is not available. And I was supposed to go

1028
01:13:25.279 --> 01:13:29.439
put another three thousand dollars down today
when I picked up the car, but

1029
01:13:29.520 --> 01:13:32.359
I don't have that money now,
and I'm not sure what to do from

1030
01:13:32.439 --> 01:13:36.279
here. Well, hold on a
second, I'm sorry, I got Jason

1031
01:13:36.359 --> 01:13:40.720
up here. Oh you must be
Lauren. Yeah, I'm Laura. I

1032
01:13:40.800 --> 01:13:44.720
see who's Jason. He's my uncle. I just thought I didn't have anybody

1033
01:13:44.760 --> 01:13:45.800
else to call, and he told
me to call you. Yeah, I

1034
01:13:45.800 --> 01:13:48.840
love this, so hold on.
I don't mean I love your situation,

1035
01:13:48.960 --> 01:13:53.720
but I kind of get it.
So you put two k down and on

1036
01:13:53.840 --> 01:13:58.119
the agreement? Did you already sign
and buy the car? Yes? I

1037
01:13:58.119 --> 01:14:00.359
would like to see a copy of
that paper work. But you're supposed to

1038
01:14:00.359 --> 01:14:04.439
give three more down today for a
total of five thousand dollars down right?

1039
01:14:05.399 --> 01:14:09.880
Yes? And what would daycare?
When is that money going to be available

1040
01:14:09.920 --> 01:14:14.600
Monday? I honestly, I have
no idea. I thought it would have

1041
01:14:14.600 --> 01:14:16.880
been available by now. Okay,
So here's where I want to ask you

1042
01:14:16.920 --> 01:14:20.119
a real question, Lauren, And
you got to really help me so I

1043
01:14:20.159 --> 01:14:26.000
can help you. Is this the
kind of deal where possibly your uncle doesn't

1044
01:14:26.039 --> 01:14:28.960
want to give you the money at
this point? Are you going to have

1045
01:14:29.079 --> 01:14:32.279
access to those funds for sure in
the next week? There's no reason to

1046
01:14:32.399 --> 01:14:36.760
check from his employers. Should take
that long. See, that's what I

1047
01:14:36.880 --> 01:14:41.399
was thinking. And it's actually my
boyfriend's father who's giving me the money.

1048
01:14:41.520 --> 01:14:45.399
Okay, but yeah, that's what
I was thinking. I was thinking three

1049
01:14:45.439 --> 01:14:47.479
to five business days should have been
there by now, So I think like

1050
01:14:47.560 --> 01:14:50.760
he's kind of just like, and
what is your messing with me? Lauren?

1051
01:14:50.800 --> 01:14:54.479
What does your boyfriend say about that? Does that even come up?

1052
01:14:56.039 --> 01:14:58.840
He's kind of on his dad's side
and just told me that, like,

1053
01:14:58.880 --> 01:15:00.479
I just need to wait it out. But I feel like I've waited long

1054
01:15:00.560 --> 01:15:04.279
enough. And what is the dealership
saying? Have you talked to the dealership

1055
01:15:04.319 --> 01:15:10.399
saying, hey, this extra three
grand I'm having issues with? Yeah?

1056
01:15:10.479 --> 01:15:13.479
I did. I messaged them this
morning and they said just to keep them

1057
01:15:13.560 --> 01:15:18.560
updated. Who is it? But
it's Rocky Mountain Eurosport in Parker? Oh

1058
01:15:18.640 --> 01:15:23.119
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, Suzanne. Aren't they next to

1059
01:15:23.279 --> 01:15:29.439
that refrigerator place? I think it
used to be TMG Auto and now it's

1060
01:15:29.600 --> 01:15:32.479
Rocky Mountain euro Sports. Okay,
listen, we don't get any complaints on

1061
01:15:32.520 --> 01:15:34.960
them, Lauren. I'm gonna ask
you another question. You seem to be

1062
01:15:35.880 --> 01:15:41.119
you seem to be reading the room
pretty well. Do you want the car?

1063
01:15:41.960 --> 01:15:45.159
I really want it and I really
need it actually? Okay, So

1064
01:15:45.319 --> 01:15:47.560
really it's just coming down to that
extra three grand. How much are you

1065
01:15:47.680 --> 01:15:56.279
financing? So it's twenty five overall? Twenty five thousand. Kevin do you

1066
01:15:56.319 --> 01:16:00.720
have the car? I mean you're
driving the car. No. I I

1067
01:16:00.720 --> 01:16:03.159
was supposed to go pick it up
today, but I can't because they want

1068
01:16:03.199 --> 01:16:05.520
the three thousand when I take it
up, So it's still sitting at the

1069
01:16:05.560 --> 01:16:09.319
dealership. All right, Hold on
a second. I am so glad she

1070
01:16:09.439 --> 01:16:13.520
said a company that I've heard of. We have never gotten to complain on

1071
01:16:13.600 --> 01:16:15.520
him. Now, granted they haven't
been around that long, and everything they're

1072
01:16:15.600 --> 01:16:20.000
telling her seems right. I think
where the problem is, I really do

1073
01:16:20.600 --> 01:16:26.840
is is not this stepfather, the
uncle, the uncle or the boyfriend.

1074
01:16:27.439 --> 01:16:30.800
Yeah, whatever that is is a
week and a paycheck. That's that's a

1075
01:16:30.800 --> 01:16:32.640
long time. No, it's a
paycheck. I mean we're not talking like

1076
01:16:32.680 --> 01:16:36.680
a check that has no account number
or handwritten stuff unless he's got some funny

1077
01:16:36.680 --> 01:16:40.680
stuff on the account. Yeah.
I mean, I think he backed out

1078
01:16:40.680 --> 01:16:45.960
of the deal and puts her in
a position. That's the hardest part.

1079
01:16:45.000 --> 01:16:49.680
Here. Here's what I'd like to
do. I would like to have Deputy

1080
01:16:49.800 --> 01:16:54.359
Dollar. We call him Deputy Dollar
for a reason. He's got a kind

1081
01:16:54.359 --> 01:16:57.960
of an accounting background. Deputy Dollar, Susanna make sure he gets this.

1082
01:16:59.600 --> 01:17:03.640
I would like him to reach out
to that dealership and just see what the

1083
01:17:03.720 --> 01:17:08.840
bottom line is. Here's really the
question I need answered. What is the

1084
01:17:08.960 --> 01:17:12.319
bottom line? If she can't come
up with another three grand? Where does

1085
01:17:12.359 --> 01:17:15.520
that put her? Are they willing
to give the two grand back? Can

1086
01:17:15.560 --> 01:17:18.600
they get that other three grand finance? Possibly? Maybe at a little higher

1087
01:17:18.640 --> 01:17:21.640
interest rate. I don't know.
I would like to help her out,

1088
01:17:23.000 --> 01:17:30.760
and I think she's getting the run
around from the boyfriend's dad. Go with

Suzanne, where did we end up there

1100
01:18:17.760 --> 01:18:23.279
on that last call? On the
last call, yes, which was I'm

1101
01:18:23.319 --> 01:18:25.600
Marty. You said dollar good,
it's gonna get it. Oh yeah,

1102
01:18:25.640 --> 01:18:27.960
I sent it to a dollar.
I gave him her phone number. He

1103
01:18:28.039 --> 01:18:30.479
was listening to the call, so
I didn't even have to explain anything.

1104
01:18:30.600 --> 01:18:33.560
Let me tell you something about Joe, the one with the lady being held

1105
01:18:33.600 --> 01:18:38.279
hostage. Yes, he called back. Yes, he was a little upset

1106
01:18:38.319 --> 01:18:40.239
that you only gave him a minute
of time. He's like, look,

1107
01:18:40.279 --> 01:18:42.640
I'm just trying to help this lady. I said, you sent me or

1108
01:18:42.840 --> 01:18:45.399
he goes. She said, you
guys can text her, but she won't

1109
01:18:45.439 --> 01:18:48.800
talk. I said, okay,
I'll play. I said, I'll text

1110
01:18:48.800 --> 01:18:51.800
her and i'll group text you.
So I group texted her and this is

1111
01:18:51.840 --> 01:18:56.720
what I wrote. Lena, Suzanne, here with the Tom Martino Troubleshooter Show.

1112
01:18:56.920 --> 01:19:00.840
Your friend Mohammed reached out to us
for help for you to get out

1113
01:19:00.880 --> 01:19:03.079
for being held hostage. We are
a live radio show. We will not

1114
01:19:03.199 --> 01:19:06.960
be giving you any money. We
have advised Mohammed not to give you another

1115
01:19:08.039 --> 01:19:10.720
dime. If you want to talk
on our live radio show for help,

1116
01:19:10.800 --> 01:19:14.319
please let me know. Not one
word yet. And I put Mohammed in

1117
01:19:14.359 --> 01:19:16.880
the text too, so he could
see that this is BS. I'm gonna

1118
01:19:16.880 --> 01:19:20.439
ask this again. I know,
I know what you're saying. We all

1119
01:19:20.479 --> 01:19:25.920
know that it's BS, meaning there's
no one being held hostage at the Air

1120
01:19:25.960 --> 01:19:29.479
Force base down the road. We
all know that. But I go air

1121
01:19:29.560 --> 01:19:33.720
Force base. I'm going another step. I'm saying Mohammed knows that, and

1122
01:19:33.760 --> 01:19:38.119
he's trying to pull one over on
Oh, you think he's trying to pull

1123
01:19:38.119 --> 01:19:41.199
what? Well, I just sent
the group text and I'm letting they call

1124
01:19:41.279 --> 01:19:43.600
back. Mark, Why don't you
just drop it if that's what he's trying

1125
01:19:43.600 --> 01:19:46.960
to do, because he's trying just
the same reason. He's trying to pull

1126
01:19:47.000 --> 01:19:49.520
one over on us. I think
he really would. Y what do you

1127
01:19:49.560 --> 01:19:54.359
think he's looking for money? Yeah? Well no, no, no,

1128
01:19:54.359 --> 01:19:57.520
no, no, y no,
no, no. Mohammed, you think

1129
01:19:57.560 --> 01:20:00.039
he's the best, he said.
He even said, I'm not asking I

1130
01:20:00.199 --> 01:20:03.720
try to get some of the money
back. Interesting take, Jeff, what

1131
01:20:03.760 --> 01:20:08.039
do you think I think he's I
think he's being duped. I think he

1132
01:20:08.079 --> 01:20:11.319
thinks it's real. I think it's
a fake call. I don't even believe

1133
01:20:11.359 --> 01:20:14.680
Mohamed. I think Mohammed is like, I'm going to try to scam these

1134
01:20:14.720 --> 01:20:16.600
people on the radio. He's begging
me for help. He's like, please

1135
01:20:16.760 --> 01:20:23.159
just help her get out, and
I said, okay, alt text hermodness.

1136
01:20:23.680 --> 01:20:28.079
I think he's been duped. He's
silly, believes exactly. That's why

1137
01:20:28.199 --> 01:20:32.319
group texted so he could see that, right. I think I just if

1138
01:20:32.399 --> 01:20:35.640
I would like the YouTubers to comment, they listen to the whole call,

1139
01:20:36.000 --> 01:20:39.920
most of the YouTubers. And what
I'm talking about is if you go to

1140
01:20:40.239 --> 01:20:44.880
the YouTube, babes, if you
go to YouTube and then type in Troubleshooter

1141
01:20:45.000 --> 01:20:47.479
Network, you'll see our live show
every day and you can go back to

1142
01:20:47.560 --> 01:20:50.319
last five, ten years, whatever
it is and watch him. But you

1143
01:20:50.359 --> 01:20:54.960
can actually hear us during the breaks
and other stuff, see different things we're

1144
01:20:54.960 --> 01:20:59.239
talking about. But my but I
want people that listen to that call.

1145
01:20:59.600 --> 01:21:00.880
Do you I think that was a
real call? Yes or no? In

1146
01:21:00.920 --> 01:21:04.880
fact, maybe during the break I'll
put up a poll if I can actually

1147
01:21:04.920 --> 01:21:09.279
log in when I'm when Tom's not
here and I'm doing the show, solo.

1148
01:21:09.720 --> 01:21:12.920
I can't quite multitask as well.
Three oh three seven, one,

1149
01:21:12.960 --> 01:21:15.159
three, eight, two five five. Now John's been waiting a while.

1150
01:21:15.560 --> 01:21:18.760
Hey John, what's going on?
Man? Hey, good shoe guys.

1151
01:21:18.800 --> 01:21:24.000
And I was listening to the Mission
Show yesterday. I was driving across Nebraska.

1152
01:21:24.039 --> 01:21:27.039
I got two quick questions on emissions. Number one, I got a

1153
01:21:27.119 --> 01:21:31.800
twenty sixteen Ford Fusion I bought new
and uh this year eight years the emission

1154
01:21:31.880 --> 01:21:34.239
is good. Now I have to
get an emissions on it because it's eight

1155
01:21:34.319 --> 01:21:39.880
years old. Well, I let
my son going to college out in California

1156
01:21:39.920 --> 01:21:43.319
have the car while he's going to
college. Well, the emissions is coming

1157
01:21:43.399 --> 01:21:45.960
up in May. There's no way
I can get the car back here to

1158
01:21:46.039 --> 01:21:50.640
do it damn emissions on it.
So I need some help on how can

1159
01:21:50.680 --> 01:21:55.199
I do that? To renew my
license plate? And the other thought I

1160
01:21:55.239 --> 01:21:58.279
had on that was that was the
first question. Number two is you know

1161
01:21:58.319 --> 01:22:01.199
how you get the registrations in the
May and you can go to King Supers

1162
01:22:01.199 --> 01:22:08.840
and Parker and renew your registration.
I wonder are they going to require or

1163
01:22:08.880 --> 01:22:11.760
do they have any way of doing
that? Has anybody done that? Or

1164
01:22:11.880 --> 01:22:15.720
you have to show that you had
the emissions done, it will register.

1165
01:22:15.840 --> 01:22:18.520
Especially if you go through a drive
by emissions on your vehicle, it'll say

1166
01:22:18.560 --> 01:22:21.720
right on that card, no emissions
required. But well, yeah, but

1167
01:22:21.760 --> 01:22:28.279
the car's in California technically going to
school. But I don't John, John,

1168
01:22:28.319 --> 01:22:31.560
I understand fully you're supposed to register
in California because you're there for more

1169
01:22:31.600 --> 01:22:35.159
than six months. That's it.
There's no way to college. And I'll

1170
01:22:35.359 --> 01:22:42.079
John, please please please listen,
Man, there is no way besides getting

1171
01:22:42.159 --> 01:22:45.279
in a mission test on that vehicle
in the state of Colorado, that you're

1172
01:22:45.319 --> 01:22:49.479
going to get your new registration.
It's not going to happen. It's simply

1173
01:22:49.560 --> 01:22:54.840
not. What Kevin said is also
correct. Once you're in a different place

1174
01:22:54.880 --> 01:22:58.600
for a period of time, you're
supposed to reregister it. I understand your

1175
01:22:58.680 --> 01:23:01.119
kids in college, so you have
two things you can do. You bring

1176
01:23:01.159 --> 01:23:05.560
the car back here and register it, or register it in California and getting

1177
01:23:05.560 --> 01:23:10.159
a missions test out there. Man, Okay, okay, I'm not mad,

1178
01:23:10.279 --> 01:23:13.439
Mark, I was just I'm not
mad either. You guys are just

1179
01:23:15.159 --> 01:23:17.600
what John he calls. Once in
a while, John, you bring up

1180
01:23:17.640 --> 01:23:20.600
something I want to say real quick. There is times I sit here and

1181
01:23:20.640 --> 01:23:27.479
I'll hear Tom do exactly what I
just did exactly, and I guess you're

1182
01:23:27.600 --> 01:23:30.079
right. But I'm not angry,
and I know Tom isn't angry when he

1183
01:23:30.119 --> 01:23:33.720
does. Tom does that to us
when we talked back, literally does it

1184
01:23:33.760 --> 01:23:38.479
to me every single minute, all
the time. So but John, you

1185
01:23:38.520 --> 01:23:42.720
know what, I appreciate you actually
bringing that to my attention. While I

1186
01:23:42.760 --> 01:23:45.399
was doing it. I'm just saying, there is no way around it.

1187
01:23:45.479 --> 01:23:50.159
It's like I was acting like you
were fishing for some other way to do

1188
01:23:50.199 --> 01:23:54.800
it, and there's not. Okay. So when I'm saying out loud,

1189
01:23:54.840 --> 01:23:57.399
I guess is if you've got a
kid away at college and he's going to

1190
01:23:57.439 --> 01:24:00.800
be here three or four years,
I say away out of state, he

1191
01:24:00.880 --> 01:24:04.159
needs the register or she needs a
registered car out of state if it has

1192
01:24:04.159 --> 01:24:10.039
an emissions things like we have here
in Colorado, or like our daughter who

1193
01:24:10.119 --> 01:24:15.720
is out of state and she is
driving our car with Colorado plates. The

1194
01:24:15.800 --> 01:24:19.479
difference is she's in Laramie. She
can go right into Ford Collins in an

1195
01:24:19.560 --> 01:24:25.119
instant, or come to our house
for that matter, down by in Douglas

1196
01:24:25.159 --> 01:24:30.239
County. So yeah, that's the
only way we renew her tags is she

1197
01:24:30.279 --> 01:24:33.000
would come here and we would get
the we would get it done. We'd

1198
01:24:33.039 --> 01:24:36.680
get the emissions done. Okay,
all right, and then the second question

1199
01:24:36.800 --> 01:24:40.520
just to make sure I got it
right. So that little thing I get

1200
01:24:40.560 --> 01:24:43.199
in the mail, and I could
used to go to King Supers and Parker

1201
01:24:43.640 --> 01:24:46.560
and pay the fee and get my
license renewed. Yes, I can't do

1202
01:24:46.640 --> 01:24:50.600
that because I'd have to also submit
in that little machine. Listen that I

1203
01:24:50.640 --> 01:24:54.840
had the emissions done. Listen,
this is what Kevin was telling you.

1204
01:24:55.199 --> 01:24:59.279
Typically what happens when you can do
it at King Supers or online. Now

1205
01:25:00.079 --> 01:25:04.159
clear what happens is at some point
you drive that car by one of these

1206
01:25:04.279 --> 01:25:11.159
roadside setups. It takes a picture
of your license plate and calculates your emissions.

1207
01:25:11.479 --> 01:25:15.439
Then when they send that postcard out. On the postcard it says missions

1208
01:25:15.600 --> 01:25:20.359
admissions not needed because it already did
have the test when you drove by.

1209
01:25:20.760 --> 01:25:27.039
Yours is not going to have that
because your car is in California and hasn't

1210
01:25:27.119 --> 01:25:29.920
driven by one of those. Ah. I thought of a workaround though.

1211
01:25:30.119 --> 01:25:33.279
Okay, listen, man, I
thought of a workaround. You ready for

1212
01:25:33.319 --> 01:25:39.319
this? Yeah, everybody, take
note, this would work not advocating for

1213
01:25:39.399 --> 01:25:43.279
this. Hold on, your missions
expert is online one. That's excellent.

1214
01:25:43.279 --> 01:25:45.640
We'll go to Mike. That's good, Mike. I appreciate you calling in

1215
01:25:45.680 --> 01:25:49.079
and we're gonna get what you have
to say about it. But here's what

1216
01:25:49.119 --> 01:25:51.239
you could do. John, you
ready, I know where you're going.

1217
01:25:51.960 --> 01:25:57.000
When you see one of those vans
set up on the corner or wherever they

1218
01:25:57.000 --> 01:25:59.279
set it up, when you're getting
on the highway. You follow me so

1219
01:25:59.399 --> 01:26:04.640
far? Yes, you steal the
van, you drive it to California and

1220
01:26:04.680 --> 01:26:10.720
you reset up everything. Let's and
have your kid drive by it. Good

1221
01:26:10.800 --> 01:26:14.239
bye, Mark. Then you get
the van back before they ever noticed it

1222
01:26:14.319 --> 01:26:16.159
was missing. I got a little
easier work around. Go ahead, okay,

1223
01:26:16.359 --> 01:26:19.760
put the licen place from the car. You need to register on another

1224
01:26:19.840 --> 01:26:25.319
car and drive by. Let's ask
our mission expert. Hold on, Hey,

1225
01:26:25.359 --> 01:26:30.039
Mike, why are you first of
all our emission expert? I know

1226
01:26:30.199 --> 01:26:32.760
things and I have connections. I
like that. Go ahead, what is

1227
01:26:32.800 --> 01:26:39.640
your thoughts on this whole thing?
He can register the car here in Colorado

1228
01:26:40.279 --> 01:26:45.479
by doing an out of state emissions
extension from our website. Oh nice,

1229
01:26:46.039 --> 01:26:54.239
Okay, test the car in California. Submit that along with the application to

1230
01:26:54.399 --> 01:27:00.399
our office and he'll be in contact
with our office if there's any problems,

1231
01:27:00.640 --> 01:27:04.800
and he should be able to just
pay for it and send have the tabs

1232
01:27:04.840 --> 01:27:09.560
mailed out there to her. Mike, Dad is I never know? It's

1233
01:27:09.600 --> 01:27:14.399
awesome. Out of sitting here for
twenty years almost, I have never heard

1234
01:27:14.399 --> 01:27:20.840
that before. Look look up this
website my DMV dot Colorado dot gov.

1235
01:27:21.399 --> 01:27:26.520
My DMV dot Colorado dot gov.
Mike, let me ask you something else.

1236
01:27:27.319 --> 01:27:30.680
We have had this question. Well, let me let me finish up

1237
01:27:30.720 --> 01:27:32.920
with John. John, you got
any other questions It looks like you really

1238
01:27:33.000 --> 01:27:36.720
have a real answer there. Thank
you. No, no, Mark,

1239
01:27:36.800 --> 01:27:40.000
I don't, but thank you for
your help. You got it man,

1240
01:27:40.039 --> 01:27:43.560
And thank Mike's there too. In
fact, well, if it wasn't for

1241
01:27:43.600 --> 01:27:47.000
me, Mike wouldn't have called.
He was trying to keep us from doing

1242
01:27:47.000 --> 01:27:50.520
something. Yeah, Mike, Mike, listen, can I hold you over

1243
01:27:50.600 --> 01:27:57.640
the break because we have had a
discussion multiple times when it comes to emissions

1244
01:27:57.640 --> 01:28:00.439
that I really want your input on. Sure, All right, hold on,

1245
01:28:00.680 --> 01:28:03.439
I can't wait for this. People
that listen to the show a lot.

1246
01:28:03.720 --> 01:28:08.159
It's got to do with converters,
and it's got to do with Wyoming.

1247
01:28:08.520 --> 01:28:15.039

three oh three nine two zero sixteen twenty

1254
01:28:44.239 --> 01:28:47.079
two. All right, I'm jumping
into this real quick. We have an

1255
01:28:47.079 --> 01:28:50.319
emissions expert. I'm not gonna say
who he works for, what he does,

1256
01:28:50.439 --> 01:28:54.239
or anything. But here's the bottom
line, Mike. I make this

1257
01:28:54.399 --> 01:28:59.640
argument all the time. If I'm
in Texas and someone steals my cat converter

1258
01:29:00.199 --> 01:29:02.880
and I get another one out there, even though it's not California missions or

1259
01:29:02.880 --> 01:29:06.640
whatever they call it Colorado emissions for
that matter, when I get back,

1260
01:29:06.920 --> 01:29:11.960
not only will that most likely longes. There's no other problems pass emissions.

1261
01:29:12.159 --> 01:29:15.520
There is nothing illegal about me getting
a CAT from out of state, because

1262
01:29:15.560 --> 01:29:20.600
if there was anybody moving here would
be in trouble unless they move from California.

1263
01:29:24.239 --> 01:29:30.239
That's right. So no one's checking
on catalic converters anymore unless you're trying

1264
01:29:30.239 --> 01:29:35.359
to get your car waivered correct not
being able to pass the CAT. So

1265
01:29:35.399 --> 01:29:39.960
I want to make this time here
one would look at the car. Here's

1266
01:29:39.960 --> 01:29:43.520
the advice I have given numerous times
that I've had people email me going,

1267
01:29:43.520 --> 01:29:46.079
no, you're telling them to break
the law. They go to get they

1268
01:29:46.119 --> 01:29:49.279
go to get a CAT at shared
a auto tech for that matter, or

1269
01:29:49.319 --> 01:29:55.079
the dealership or wherever they have to
have an oem or at least the California

1270
01:29:55.119 --> 01:30:00.119
emissions they're two or three thousand dollars. They can drive the Laramie or or

1271
01:30:00.199 --> 01:30:04.479
drive somewhere in Wyoming or lots of
other states where they're not needed to do

1272
01:30:04.520 --> 01:30:10.279
that and get it replaced there for
a fraction of the cost, then come

1273
01:30:10.359 --> 01:30:14.600
back to Colorado. I'm saying there
is nothing illegal about that at all.

1274
01:30:15.560 --> 01:30:21.640
Well, it's it's it's kind of
a fine line. I ride fine lines.

1275
01:30:21.680 --> 01:30:26.479
Baby. If the if the car
passes the emissions test, then it's

1276
01:30:26.520 --> 01:30:30.359
fine. That's right. That's right, That is absolutely right, Mike.

1277
01:30:31.279 --> 01:30:35.960
But yeah, they don't look for
the components and only ones that get looked

1278
01:30:36.000 --> 01:30:41.119
for components. Are you know what
drives me crazy? Mike? Last thing

1279
01:30:41.159 --> 01:30:44.039
I'll say. You know, I
don't even mind a missions test. I

1280
01:30:44.079 --> 01:30:46.640
mean they used to kind of drive
me crazy. But it's crazy how Colorado

1281
01:30:47.039 --> 01:30:51.119
doesn't have a safety inspection. They
could care less if your brakes are metal

1282
01:30:51.159 --> 01:30:56.039
to metal or your tires are bald, but they care about the emissions.

1283
01:30:56.039 --> 01:31:00.199
What are your thoughts? Yeah,
it's You're exactly right. I wish they

1284
01:31:00.199 --> 01:31:02.800
would do. It's crazy type of
once a year, it's Mike, I

01:34:01.159 --> 01:34:04.560
card day. As we know,
we've talked a lot of stuff so far.

1324
01:34:05.319 --> 01:34:09.319
We're going to talk more on cars. We've got Douglas's got a question,

1325
01:34:09.359 --> 01:34:13.840
but Tish has been hanging the longest. Tish, what's going on with

1326
01:34:13.880 --> 01:34:19.560
you? Hi? Hello? We
have where I live? Hell yes,

1327
01:34:19.600 --> 01:34:28.760
tis yes, ma'am. At the
condos where I live, big condo complex,

1328
01:34:28.840 --> 01:34:34.399
two hundred and forty some units.
They are trying to assess the homeowners

1329
01:34:34.479 --> 01:34:43.560
for roof damage and gutters and such
as. That trim for uh two million,

1330
01:34:43.800 --> 01:34:47.199
eight and eighty some dollars. Give
me that number again, two million.

1331
01:34:47.239 --> 01:34:51.199
What I'll tell you exactly what it
is? Well, two million,

1332
01:34:51.239 --> 01:34:57.279
eight thousand, Yeah, two million, eight hundred and eighty three dollars and

1333
01:34:57.439 --> 01:35:02.479
eighty three Yeah, yeah, a
three hundred three million, almost three millions.

1334
01:35:03.520 --> 01:35:09.279
So you're looking at about you personally
are looking between eleven and twelve grand.

1335
01:35:10.720 --> 01:35:13.800
It is. It's eleven because I
have one of the larger units.

1336
01:35:13.920 --> 01:35:16.800
Well, it's not large. Any
imagination? What storm damage? I want

1337
01:35:16.800 --> 01:35:20.560
to ask you something, Tiss.
There's a few questions here. One storm

1338
01:35:20.640 --> 01:35:25.680
damage is it because of a storm
from last year? Or is the roof

1339
01:35:25.960 --> 01:35:30.239
just really old. No, No, the roof is only like five six

1340
01:35:30.359 --> 01:35:33.199
years old at the most. I
remember when they put it on. I've

1341
01:35:33.199 --> 01:35:39.840
been here since twenty ten. So
the roof is fine right now. It

1342
01:35:39.880 --> 01:35:44.560
looks fine. My fiance who used
to doing a long time. Hey,

1343
01:35:44.600 --> 01:35:45.800
Tish, I'm not Tish, Tish, I'm sorry. Hold on, let

1344
01:35:45.840 --> 01:35:49.039
me let me just I'm not communicating
properly. Let me ask you this.

1345
01:35:49.319 --> 01:35:54.439
Okay. They want to assess roughly
everybody around eleven thousand. Let's just round

1346
01:35:54.479 --> 01:36:00.239
it off to get close to the
fair enough, fair enough, we want

1347
01:36:00.279 --> 01:36:02.960
to assess everybody out there. What
is the assessment for? Is it for

1348
01:36:03.199 --> 01:36:08.880
current projects that need to be done, for example, roofing, or is

1349
01:36:08.920 --> 01:36:14.680
it because the insurance went up?
Their insurance went up and they say they

1350
01:36:14.680 --> 01:36:16.680
don't have enough insurance to cover it. Okay, so they want us to

1351
01:36:16.680 --> 01:36:21.279
make up difference. So the best
thing that's going to happen is a shop

1352
01:36:21.319 --> 01:36:25.880
around and get a better deal.
Other than that, there's not much I

1353
01:36:25.920 --> 01:36:29.159
can tell you. In Colorado,
we get this call. Now, we

1354
01:36:29.279 --> 01:36:33.319
get this call two or three times
every freaking week. Here's what I would

1355
01:36:33.359 --> 01:36:36.279
like to do, though, Suzanne. Let's get Brian or Jeremy up with

1356
01:36:36.359 --> 01:36:41.560
Compass Insurance. I want to give
you exact information on this tiss so I'm

1357
01:36:41.560 --> 01:36:45.359
going to put you on hold for
a second. Right hold on, We're

1358
01:36:45.359 --> 01:36:48.600
going to get one of our insurance
experts up. I swear we have gotten

1359
01:36:48.640 --> 01:36:54.159
this call three times just this week, four or five times a week before.

1360
01:36:54.640 --> 01:37:00.399
It's almost getting impossible to ensure a
condominium or a you know, the

1361
01:37:00.439 --> 01:37:05.840
condo, not just the un This
assessment that for twelve twelve grand it's masney

1362
01:37:06.239 --> 01:37:11.720
And if the insurance went up and
they're doing the special assessment, Now what

1363
01:37:11.880 --> 01:37:15.479
I want to ask Jeremy or Brian
at Compass, does that mean next year

1364
01:37:15.520 --> 01:37:19.279
it's going to be that high we
have another hailstorm? Yeah, it's crazy,

1365
01:37:19.359 --> 01:37:24.800
man. God, Someone's got to
come up with a better what do

1366
01:37:24.840 --> 01:37:28.199
they call it, a better trap, a better mouse trap. But right

1367
01:37:28.239 --> 01:37:30.199
now there's no way you can avoid
the assessment. I don't think that's what

1368
01:37:30.199 --> 01:37:33.760
we're going to talk about, Brian. But I'm more curious of down the

1369
01:37:33.800 --> 01:37:36.920
line. But they might be able
to get a better deal, but I

1370
01:37:36.960 --> 01:37:41.079
don't know. I have no idea, doc. I mean, it just

1371
01:37:41.159 --> 01:37:43.760
sucks no matter how you look at
it, it sucks. Now, this

1372
01:37:43.920 --> 01:37:50.359
is a very curious question, Mike. What is your question? Oh hey,

1373
01:37:50.399 --> 01:38:00.880
Mike, Oh oh yeah, I'm
got a question about my twenty twenty

1374
01:38:00.000 --> 01:38:06.359
three GMTUK. Okay, they put
on Star in the darn thing, and

1375
01:38:06.560 --> 01:38:14.199
I understand Armstar spies on drivers and
then reports to the insurance companies. If

1376
01:38:14.239 --> 01:38:18.039
that's true, how do I get
on Star off my car? Well,

1377
01:38:18.119 --> 01:38:21.279
let's let's take this in two parts. I'm going to go. First of

1378
01:38:21.319 --> 01:38:25.520
all, I'm not going to say
if it's true or not, because we'll

1379
01:38:25.560 --> 01:38:28.880
handle that second. I don't know
the answer to that. But first,

1380
01:38:29.119 --> 01:38:32.000
how do I get it off my
car? Kevin? He can just unplug

1381
01:38:32.039 --> 01:38:36.439
the antenna. That's my and I
think there's an no Star module. But

1382
01:38:39.159 --> 01:38:42.960
how do I get it off?
Track down? Your antenna's up on the

1383
01:38:43.000 --> 01:38:46.520
top and you unplug the antenna.
It's got a non Star antenna off for

1384
01:38:46.600 --> 01:38:49.880
it self. But where is it? It's on the roof of the on

1385
01:38:49.920 --> 01:38:54.119
the roof of the rig that's up
there. Do I have to take that

1386
01:38:54.279 --> 01:38:57.600
cover off? You'll have to access
a little bit of it. Yeah,

1387
01:38:57.640 --> 01:39:00.720
and there's nothing I mean, this
sounds crazy, Kevin, but there's nothing

1388
01:39:00.760 --> 01:39:04.760
illegal about disabling OnStar in your own
vehicle. No. From what I understand,

1389
01:39:04.960 --> 01:39:08.960
they don't spy do. They only
initiate any kind of tracking when you

1390
01:39:09.000 --> 01:39:13.359
initiate a call. So they're not
they're not, They're not looking at you.

1391
01:39:13.399 --> 01:39:16.399
They got better things to do.
Well, well, here's wait wait

1392
01:39:16.399 --> 01:39:20.479
wait wait wait wait, I'm reading
this right here. This is out of

1393
01:39:21.039 --> 01:39:29.239
ABC seven of Chicago. Turns out, GM's on Star service has a smart

1394
01:39:29.720 --> 01:39:35.439
driver feature, which tracks driver habits
as a way to improve safety. GM

1395
01:39:35.600 --> 01:39:45.039
confirmed to the Times that it shares
select insights with lexus Nexus and other data

1396
01:39:45.079 --> 01:39:51.399
brokers. Hold on. That is
insane. Not only are they collecting that

1397
01:39:51.560 --> 01:40:00.000
information, they're sharing it on Lexus
Nexus. Lexus Nexus is based company.

1398
01:40:00.159 --> 01:40:03.479
That's what Lexus Nexus is. They're
not the insurance companies, but they collect

1399
01:40:03.520 --> 01:40:10.760
the data for the insurance companies.
This is remarkable, Mike, I had

1400
01:40:10.840 --> 01:40:16.640
no idea, absolutely no idea that
it was going on. No idea.

1401
01:40:16.680 --> 01:40:20.680
I don't pay on Star or anything. Does that mean I'm not on their

1402
01:40:20.720 --> 01:40:25.159
spy network. I wouldn't trust them
at all. I think you're still they

1403
01:40:25.159 --> 01:40:28.680
wouldn't either. That's why I want
to get it off the cart that No,

1404
01:40:28.680 --> 01:40:30.920
no, no, this is my
This is my opinion of what he

1405
01:40:31.119 --> 01:40:35.560
just said means. My opinion is
if you smash into a tree, they'll

1406
01:40:35.680 --> 01:40:40.560
leave you for dead because you're not
paying the ninety nine bucks a year.

1407
01:40:40.920 --> 01:40:45.680
But if you fast, accelerate or
break, they're going to report you to

1408
01:40:45.760 --> 01:40:49.039
Lexus Nexus. To me, that's
what it means, even if I'm not

1409
01:40:49.079 --> 01:40:53.920
paying anything. I think it's collecting
that data. Man. I am telling

1410
01:40:53.920 --> 01:40:59.039
you from this article I'm reading.
Just look up ABC Chicago on Star.

1411
01:40:59.439 --> 01:41:01.399
That's it. Just look it up. They did a full story on it.

1412
01:41:01.439 --> 01:41:05.840
I can't watch the actual newscast,
but I'm reading the article. It

1413
01:41:05.920 --> 01:41:09.720
was uncovered. Hold on, I
got to put him on hold. Listen

1414
01:41:09.960 --> 01:41:12.680
you you kind of broke this story, but this is insane to me.

1415
01:41:13.119 --> 01:41:17.840
The data collection was uncovered by drivers
using General Motors on Star service, which

1416
01:41:17.880 --> 01:41:23.319
is traditionally used to make an emergency
call. The owner of a Chevy Bolt

1417
01:41:23.600 --> 01:41:28.159
told The Times he uncovered a two
five eight oh I'm sorry, a two

1418
01:41:28.239 --> 01:41:32.920
hundred and fifty eight page report on
his personal driving habits. After he asked

1419
01:41:32.960 --> 01:41:39.720
about more than a twenty percent increase
on his insurance. His insurance company to

1420
01:41:39.960 --> 01:41:44.880
said, check your Lexus. Next
file turns out GM's on Star service has

1421
01:41:44.920 --> 01:41:48.359
a smart driving feature. Blah blah
blah. Oh my god, that is

1422
01:41:48.640 --> 01:41:55.399
crazy, Kevin, that is crazy. No idea, Mike. I had

1423
01:41:55.439 --> 01:41:58.840
to put you on hold because I
had to read that article. Brother to

1424
01:41:59.000 --> 01:42:01.800
me, I there's other people out
there. I'm sure know this. I

1425
01:42:01.840 --> 01:42:04.880
have never heard this, nor have
I ever had on Star. I don't

1426
01:42:04.960 --> 01:42:09.079
use it, I don't have it. But now I'm starting to wonder blue

1427
01:42:09.159 --> 01:42:12.800
Link, which is on days.
I wonder if they do it, well,

1428
01:42:12.800 --> 01:42:15.560
why wouldn't they If they could sell
the data and make money on it,

1429
01:42:15.600 --> 01:42:17.560
they will. Oh my god.
You know what, here's one thing

1430
01:42:17.560 --> 01:42:19.920
I want to do. I got
to talk to hold on. I'm going

1431
01:42:19.960 --> 01:42:23.680
to put you on hold, man, Mike, please please hang on if

1432
01:42:23.720 --> 01:42:26.880
you can. And then Tish,
we're going to go back to that HOA

1433
01:42:26.960 --> 01:42:30.079
assessment. And then Douglas has a
problem with a rebuilt title. But I

1434
01:42:30.119 --> 01:42:34.840
want to go to John Fuller in
just a second. I'm gonna let's do

1435
01:42:34.920 --> 01:42:38.520
what we have to do real quick. Then we'll go to John Fuller,

1436
01:42:38.680 --> 01:42:41.119
and I want to talk to him
about something, but I want to ask

1437
01:42:41.199 --> 01:42:45.039
him about this data collection too,
So make sure John knows I'm going to

1438
01:42:45.119 --> 01:42:47.239
keep them a little long. Everybody, hold on, this is crazy.

1452
01:43:48.000 --> 01:43:53.720
Douglas, what's going on? Hey? Good afternoon, Good afternoon, sir,

1453
01:43:53.880 --> 01:43:57.479
looking at buying, looking at buying
a car down and calling out of

1454
01:43:57.520 --> 01:44:01.039
springs, and the issue of a
rebuilt title came up. Is that a

1455
01:44:01.159 --> 01:44:05.319
good idea? A bad idea?
Something I should never do? Kevin?

1456
01:44:05.359 --> 01:44:09.079
What do you think? Well,
depending on who rebuilt it, you know,

1457
01:44:09.159 --> 01:44:12.520
and what kind of damage and so
forth, you can have cars that

1458
01:44:12.600 --> 01:44:17.439
are salvage because somebody stole the interior. You can have, you know,

1459
01:44:17.560 --> 01:44:21.960
hail. Let's take Hale Douglas.
If the car you're looking at was due

1460
01:44:21.960 --> 01:44:26.119
to hell, that means what happened
is it got totaled out because a hail

1461
01:44:26.199 --> 01:44:30.800
damage was so bad. So if
you really look at it and don't care

1462
01:44:30.840 --> 01:44:32.720
if the car is ugly, and
I'm just using this for an example,

1463
01:44:33.079 --> 01:44:36.640
it still drives as good as it
should and still does everything else. It

1464
01:44:36.840 --> 01:44:42.279
just had so much hail damage that
it wasn't worth repairing, so they totaled

1465
01:44:42.279 --> 01:44:46.079
it. But then somebody took it
that possibly is a dentless hail guy,

1466
01:44:46.439 --> 01:44:51.600
and he bought it salvaged because the
insurance company totaled it, and he fixed

1467
01:44:51.640 --> 01:44:56.479
it himself because it doesn't cost him
any money to do, because that's what

1468
01:44:56.520 --> 01:45:00.520
he does for a living Then boom, you have this car that's in great

1469
01:45:00.560 --> 01:45:05.039
shape but yet has a rebuilt title. So going to what Kevin was saying,

1470
01:45:05.359 --> 01:45:11.600
why does this car have a rebuilt
title? Yeah? So they they

1471
01:45:11.840 --> 01:45:17.520
did have some sort of severe front
end collision and that was repaired by somebody

1472
01:45:17.600 --> 01:45:21.279
that's unclear. But I'm wondering,
Okay, maybe I can get a little

1473
01:45:21.279 --> 01:45:25.520
better beat okay because of this.
But am I going to be what kind

1474
01:45:25.520 --> 01:45:30.239
of good question? Uh? It's
a twenty twenty Honda Passport. Well I

1475
01:45:30.239 --> 01:45:32.920
want to get into the insurance aspect
in a second, but I want to

1476
01:45:32.920 --> 01:45:38.000
ask Kevin something. Back in my
day in automotive, if we had something

1477
01:45:38.039 --> 01:45:40.920
that possibly had frame damage, we
put it up to do an alignment,

1478
01:45:41.239 --> 01:45:44.520
something squirrely, funky, nothing we're
going to touch. We would send it

1479
01:45:44.560 --> 01:45:47.640
to a company called Bare Frame and
Axle. They had the ability to actually

1480
01:45:47.760 --> 01:45:51.079
bend and twist and do whatever they
did. I wasn't in the biz,

1481
01:45:51.079 --> 01:45:56.640
don't know. So who would he
bring it to these days in order to

1482
01:45:56.760 --> 01:45:59.720
check it? I mean, a
good body shop will be able to measure

1483
01:45:59.760 --> 01:46:01.880
the in a body, okay,
because a lot of cars don't have frames

1484
01:46:01.880 --> 01:46:05.600
anymore. Oh so, that's probably
why bear frame of axle's gone. Yeah,

1485
01:46:05.800 --> 01:46:10.279
yeah, likely, Yeah, that's
what I would be done on me.

1486
01:46:10.399 --> 01:46:13.520
Yeah, that's what I would do. I tend to recommend you stay

1487
01:46:13.560 --> 01:46:16.359
away from hard hit cars. They
just they're they're never right. Yeap,

1488
01:46:16.520 --> 01:46:20.600
I like that. Now the insurance, the insurance aspect, Douglas is kind

1489
01:46:20.600 --> 01:46:25.159
of crazy, and once again I
was hoping to get Brian or mad On

1490
01:46:25.920 --> 01:46:28.520
from Compass, Susanna, are we
gonna have any luck on that you think

1491
01:46:28.760 --> 01:46:31.479
should be? Okay? So I'm
going to ask them Douglas. But if

1492
01:46:31.520 --> 01:46:36.600
you buy a car that's been totaled, that means an insurance company has already

1493
01:46:36.600 --> 01:46:41.119
paid out one hundred percent value of
whatever that car was when it happened.

1494
01:46:41.359 --> 01:46:45.479
So when you insure it, it
becomes very tricky. You might ensure it

1495
01:46:45.560 --> 01:46:49.039
is if your insurance company might charge
you like it hasn't been totaled, but

1496
01:46:49.199 --> 01:46:54.479
then when you total it in a
different accident, they find out it was

1497
01:46:54.520 --> 01:46:57.640
totally and you might be getting very
little money. But I have an expert

1498
01:46:57.720 --> 01:47:00.279
coming on that. We're asking him
another question. We're going to ask him

1499
01:47:00.279 --> 01:47:04.399
that as well, So hold Titan, we'll do that now. Suggestion for

1500
01:47:04.520 --> 01:47:11.079
emissions call. Bill. We had
a guy that his son was in California

1501
01:47:11.640 --> 01:47:15.520
and his tags are due and he
needs an emissions test because it's over eight

1502
01:47:15.600 --> 01:47:18.880
years and you wanted to steal the
van. And Kevin suggested you steal the

1503
01:47:18.880 --> 01:47:24.079
emissions van. No, but we
had someone call in one of our angels

1504
01:47:25.159 --> 01:47:27.880
and basically said, no, you
can go, and he gave the website

1505
01:47:27.960 --> 01:47:31.239
out and you can actually fill out
kind of a waiver getting a missions test

1506
01:47:31.279 --> 01:47:34.640
from Arizona. I'm sorry, California
and that would pass. You know what

1507
01:47:34.680 --> 01:47:38.199
we should have asked, Mike,
he was our expert. We should have

1508
01:47:38.199 --> 01:47:42.119
asked if it was a non emission
state, what do you do because like

1509
01:47:42.439 --> 01:47:44.720
you know, you go to Wyoming, there is no emission. I think

1510
01:47:44.720 --> 01:47:46.920
there's only some much you can do. Yeah, there's Yeah, you'd probably

1511
01:47:47.000 --> 01:47:49.560
have to bring it back here or
steal the truck, like Kevin said,

1512
01:47:49.760 --> 01:47:54.359
So, Bill, what's your comment. Well, my daughter she went up

1513
01:47:54.359 --> 01:47:58.239
to school out of state and the
car came from here. We shipped it

1514
01:47:58.279 --> 01:48:02.479
out there. Well, when the
emissions would do whatever the heck was going

1515
01:48:02.520 --> 01:48:06.399
on, it was like what deck
who we supposed to do? So I

1516
01:48:06.560 --> 01:48:11.640
checked into it and what they told
me to do. Was I think I

1517
01:48:11.680 --> 01:48:15.399
think Colorado told me to do is
just go to the state that you're at

1518
01:48:15.479 --> 01:48:20.840
and getting the emission there and send
that in. But that became a headache.

1519
01:48:21.159 --> 01:48:24.800
So all I did was I signed
the call over to her and she

1520
01:48:24.880 --> 01:48:28.800
resisted in her name where she was
at. Okay, that's not a bad

1521
01:48:28.800 --> 01:48:32.039
way to do it. But in
California, Man, he'd end up paying

1522
01:48:32.039 --> 01:48:36.600
the sales tax. That the problem, Bill is, where he is California,

1523
01:48:38.119 --> 01:48:41.359
just to transfer that vehicle to his
kid, they're going to end up

1524
01:48:41.359 --> 01:48:44.920
paying sales tax on it. If
there is a ten year warranty on that

1525
01:48:45.039 --> 01:48:46.560
vehicle. I don't think there would
have been, But if there was,

1526
01:48:46.640 --> 01:48:49.800
like Conde, the second you transfer
it, you lose that ten youre warranty,

1527
01:48:50.039 --> 01:48:54.159
even if you're transferring it to a
family friend. But I appreciate that

1528
01:48:54.239 --> 01:48:58.520
info. Bill. If she wasn't
in California, actually that could work out

1529
01:48:59.039 --> 01:49:02.199
funny enough. If she was,
like in South Dakota or Montana, there

1530
01:49:02.239 --> 01:49:06.800
would be no sales tax. You
pay a one time registration. I believe

1531
01:49:06.840 --> 01:49:11.399
that's correct at least for some states. All right, let's take a quick

1532
01:49:11.439 --> 01:49:14.439
break. Hopefully we can get Brian
up. We've got two questions for him,

1554
01:50:43.239 --> 01:50:45.640
YouTube for a second. You've got
to understand during the breaks when we go

1555
01:50:45.680 --> 01:50:49.000
to commercials, besides the live spots
we do, we have a lot of

1556
01:50:49.079 --> 01:50:51.920
discussions. Some of them are fun, some of them are serious. You

1557
01:50:51.960 --> 01:50:56.600
hear a lot of inside information.
It's a great way to listen to the

1558
01:50:56.640 --> 01:51:00.199
show, it really is, or
at least watch the show while you're listening

1559
01:51:00.239 --> 01:51:03.199
on k HOW or krd O or
however you're listening, or of course on

1560
01:51:03.239 --> 01:51:06.960
the iHeart app. That's another great
way. Anyhow, Hey, can I

1567
01:51:30.239 --> 01:51:32.680
can I ask the YouTube on something? Of course, when I'm scrolling

1568
01:51:32.720 --> 01:51:38.079
through YouTube with some other thing on
my phone, I get all of these

1569
01:51:38.439 --> 01:51:44.279
ads for solitaire games that they say, no ads, no money, and

1570
01:51:44.319 --> 01:51:46.600
they will pay you. Does anybody
know what the catch is? I have

1571
01:51:46.720 --> 01:51:51.399
no clue. That's why I'm asking
our audience, just like just like you,

1572
01:51:51.560 --> 01:51:55.119
I know there's a catch somewhere.
Yeah, call back on Monday and

1573
01:51:55.159 --> 01:51:59.199
let me know anybody who understands what
the catch is. Yeah, there has

1574
01:51:59.239 --> 01:52:01.920
to be a catch. There are
probably charging somehow who knows. Man,

1575
01:52:02.000 --> 01:52:03.920
Well, you see the ads all
the time. You can win, you

1576
01:52:04.000 --> 01:52:08.159
know, a thousand dollars sitting yeah, whatever, sitting at home doing nothing.

1577
01:52:08.640 --> 01:52:11.000
Of course, I'd like to meet
the one person that has. Now

1578
01:52:11.159 --> 01:52:15.119
we have our expert, the owner
of Compass Insurance, Brian Burns. Brian,

1579
01:52:15.159 --> 01:52:17.279
thanks for coming on, man.
A couple questions. I want to

1580
01:52:17.279 --> 01:52:21.319
start with the most recent. Douglas
is looking at buying what kind of vehicle

1581
01:52:21.359 --> 01:52:28.720
again? Was it Douglas? It
was a what that was a twenty twenty

1582
01:52:28.920 --> 01:52:32.239
Honda Passport. So he's looking at
the twenty twenty Honda Passport. Apparently the

1583
01:52:32.279 --> 01:52:35.159
dealer trying to sell it to him. It has front end, front end

1584
01:52:35.239 --> 01:52:41.479
damage so severe that someone rebuilt it. It's got a rebuild title. So

1585
01:52:42.000 --> 01:52:44.880
throw out whether he should have buy
it or not. I could care less,

1586
01:52:45.079 --> 01:52:48.640
but talk about insurance when it comes
to something with a rebuild title.

1587
01:52:48.920 --> 01:52:56.279
If he buys this for twenty thousand
dollars and he wrecks it, are they

1588
01:52:56.319 --> 01:53:00.039
going to give him the value of
the twenty thousand dollars or whatever the value

1589
01:53:00.119 --> 01:53:03.520
is at the time of the accident. But with the rebuilt title, it

1590
01:53:03.520 --> 01:53:08.199
could be a lot less explained.
Please, Well, yeah, a rebuilt

1591
01:53:08.239 --> 01:53:13.920
title does get it to where you
can actually ensure it again. And that's

1592
01:53:13.920 --> 01:53:16.800
exactly what the last us for If
this car had been totaled, or if

1593
01:53:16.840 --> 01:53:21.199
it was a salvage title, the
only way to get collision and comprehensive on

1594
01:53:21.279 --> 01:53:25.319
it again is to have a rebuilt
title. And once it's rebuilt, they've

1595
01:53:25.359 --> 01:53:28.239
agreed to ensure it for the actual
cash value. Of the vehicle, which

1596
01:53:28.760 --> 01:53:30.720
they're not going to depreciate based off
of the fact that it was in an

1597
01:53:30.760 --> 01:53:35.119
accident before. That's very interesting.
So if he chose to go forward with

1598
01:53:35.199 --> 01:53:39.800
this, because it's not a salvage, it has been rebuilt, and I

1599
01:53:39.800 --> 01:53:44.239
guess if he bought one that salvaged, he could actually go through the rebuilding

1600
01:53:44.319 --> 01:53:48.119
process, have CSP actually sign off
on it, and then rebrand the title

1601
01:53:48.199 --> 01:53:53.439
again. But in this case,
if he bought it and let's say one

1602
01:53:53.479 --> 01:53:58.239
that was never in an accident,
clean car facts, same miles, it

1603
01:53:58.279 --> 01:54:01.239
would be the same value. What
you're saying, there really is no depreciation

1604
01:54:01.399 --> 01:54:04.840
at all. No, I mean, there's diminished value that you know you

1605
01:54:04.880 --> 01:54:09.119
can get with this kind of thing, but that's not that's not an issue

1606
01:54:09.159 --> 01:54:13.479
when you're insuring it for your own
insurance because value is not even a factor

1607
01:54:13.520 --> 01:54:16.199
in it. So if they have
agreed to ensure it, they're not charging

1608
01:54:16.319 --> 01:54:21.079
him, you know, less because
it's worth less or whatever. At that

1609
01:54:21.199 --> 01:54:25.319
point, once they've decided to ensure
it, they are now on the hook

1610
01:54:25.399 --> 01:54:29.439
to pay whatever the actual cash value
is for that vehicle, you know,

1611
01:54:29.560 --> 01:54:32.600
to get another vehicle of like quality. So Douglas that's actually great news.

1612
01:54:32.680 --> 01:54:35.920
I was a little I was I
was thinking the wrong things on that.

1613
01:54:36.239 --> 01:54:40.920
But I want to throw this out
to you though, Douglas. If you

1614
01:54:40.960 --> 01:54:45.800
can find another twenty twenty that has
not been into an accident like that in

1615
01:54:45.840 --> 01:54:48.279
the same condition, I would definitely
get the one that does not have a

1616
01:54:48.319 --> 01:54:53.479
rebuilt title, because no matter what
assurance society, it's going to be much

1617
01:54:53.640 --> 01:54:58.039
harder to sell that vehicle when you
finally go to liquidate it. Yep.

1618
01:54:58.239 --> 01:55:00.880
Yeah, and that's our that's our
con And really the reason for the call

1619
01:55:01.159 --> 01:55:05.159
is now. Of course this dealer, did they tell you at the last

1620
01:55:05.199 --> 01:55:10.840
minute. No, they were pretty
up front of okay, good. They

1621
01:55:10.880 --> 01:55:15.239
said that most of their stock is
a rebuilt and that's how they get the

1622
01:55:15.279 --> 01:55:19.600
lower price. Sure, a lot
of places doing what's the dealership called it,

1623
01:55:19.720 --> 01:55:25.000
called auto savvy. They have good
reviews online. Is it up North?

1624
01:55:26.880 --> 01:55:30.399
There's it's one in the Springs,
I think windsor Yeah. How much

1625
01:55:30.439 --> 01:55:33.800
are you going with Salvis hold On? I want to say this about this

1626
01:55:33.960 --> 01:55:39.119
place. They've been around a while, and he's right. The reviews are

1627
01:55:39.119 --> 01:55:42.359
great years ago, not even years
ago. With in the past three hundred

1628
01:55:42.359 --> 01:55:45.520
and sixty five days. I talked
to a manager over there on a call

1629
01:55:45.680 --> 01:55:48.720
and it wasn't a complaint. It
was more or less trying to understand their

1630
01:55:48.760 --> 01:55:51.800
business after a call, and sure
enough, that's what they do. They

1631
01:55:51.880 --> 01:55:57.319
specialize and they're pretty damn good man. So I want to say something.

1632
01:55:57.399 --> 01:56:00.359
I am comfortable, Douglas, if
you're getting the value. So in other

1633
01:56:00.399 --> 01:56:06.640
words, if that vehicle that had
a regular title sells for twenty four and

1634
01:56:06.680 --> 01:56:12.000
you're getting a four thousand dollars discount, I don't see any issue when you're

1635
01:56:12.039 --> 01:56:15.359
buying it from that company. They
rebuild them properly, they get them signed

1636
01:56:15.399 --> 01:56:19.880
off by CSP, and we have
never had a complaint on them besides an

1637
01:56:19.920 --> 01:56:26.960
inquiry like you're doing well. That's
good to hear. That's that's exactly why

1638
01:56:27.159 --> 01:56:30.119
I called. It's just to see
is this something that I'm getting. What

1639
01:56:30.319 --> 01:56:34.239
I would do is see what you
got to see what they're selling for,

1640
01:56:34.439 --> 01:56:40.399
like on carfac or not Carfax,
CarMax, any of these other places.

1641
01:56:40.840 --> 01:56:45.079
See what they're asking for the vehicle. If you're saving let's say I don't

1642
01:56:45.119 --> 01:56:49.960
know twenty percent, twenty five percent, I would say it's probably worth it

1643
01:56:50.039 --> 01:56:54.319
because when you go to sell it. That's when you're going to have to

1644
01:56:54.399 --> 01:57:00.319
absorb it back if someone's paying attention. Okay, well, all right,

1645
01:57:00.359 --> 01:57:02.479
man, appreciate you got to thank
you, Douglas. I appreciate it.

1646
01:57:02.520 --> 01:57:08.159
Now, Brian Burns, I'm going
to tish Tish is the same call we

1647
01:57:08.239 --> 01:57:12.840
have had three times this week so
far, Brian, in a bunch of

1648
01:57:12.880 --> 01:57:17.800
times last week. Here's the deal. Her HOA is hitting the community,

1649
01:57:17.840 --> 01:57:24.359
the condo community, with roughly a
nine to eleven thousand dollars per person assessment.

1650
01:57:24.640 --> 01:57:28.119
It's a big complex, two hundred
and forty people. They're saying the

1651
01:57:28.199 --> 01:57:30.520
insurance costs a lot more. What
are your thoughts on it? Man,

1652
01:57:30.560 --> 01:57:33.880
I'm going to just let you talk, okay, So let me just make

1653
01:57:33.920 --> 01:57:39.760
sure I understand this assessment that is
being sent you is because the insurance went

1654
01:57:39.840 --> 01:57:44.239
up and cost or there was a
claim. There was a yeah, they

1655
01:57:44.239 --> 01:57:47.960
did a claim, but their insurance
went up and they said they couldn't afford

1656
01:57:48.000 --> 01:57:53.520
it, and so they're assessing us
the homeowners with pay Hey, Brian,

1657
01:57:53.680 --> 01:57:56.800
I'm going to interrupt because I don't
like how she answered, and I asked

1658
01:57:56.800 --> 01:58:00.760
her this question directly. This is
a very important question. Tish. The

1659
01:58:00.840 --> 01:58:05.359
assessment we're talking about right now,
is it going to be used to fix

1660
01:58:05.439 --> 01:58:12.359
stuff or just for insurance? Now
it's to fix the roofs. Okay,

1661
01:58:12.600 --> 01:58:15.439
that's that's not what you said last
time. So hold on, let me

1662
01:58:15.479 --> 01:58:17.560
take this break, and then I
promise I'll bring you and Brian back up

1663
01:58:17.600 --> 01:58:20.279
and we'll get it figured out.
